When Hal Douglas is heard phoning LaFontaine, the familiar intro to the "Theme from New York, New York" is heard on the music track as a subtle indication of Douglas' east coast management. This is abruptly interrupted by a sample from the 1985 electronica song "Oh Yeah" by Swiss band Yello, once LaFontaine ignores Douglas and introduces Al Chalk. An excerpt from the score of Groundhog Day ("Medley: Phil's Piano Solo/Eighteenth Variation from Rapsodie on a Theme of Paganini") is heard when Mark Elliott enters the film.

Famous quotes containing the word cultural:
“The primary function of myth is to validate an existing social order. Myth enshrines conservative social values, raising tradition on a pedestal. It expresses and confirms, rather than explains or questions, the sources of cultural attitudes and values.... Because myth anchors the present in the past it is a sociological charter for a future society which is an exact replica of the present one.”
—Ann Oakley (b. 1944)
