What critics compared The Illustrated Man to
From the cars, to the clothes, to the hairstyles, to the home décor—everything is perfectly, lovingly in place, and Tarantino packs the film with references to movies and television and music both familiar and obscure (marquees and posters and billboards in the background remind us of the existence of movies such as The Night They Raided Minsky’s, The Illustrated Man, Ice Station Zebra, Candy, and 3 in the Attic).
