Sergio Leone intended that the film be a tribute to early gangster films: Noodles's visit to his childhood house is similar to Strada sbarrata (1937).Noodles's nostalgia for the days of his youth was taken from Una pallottola per Roy (1941).As in Gli angeli con la faccia sporca (1938), two boyhood chums grow up to be very different, and one of them visits their childhood hangouts, and remembers the old days.The changing times bring a new era of unions and politics, similar to Le belve della città (1936).The gangster (Max) who gradually turns paranoid comes from La furia umana (1949).The suitcase at the train station pays homage to L'urlo della città (1948) and Rapina a mano armata (1956).The inscription "Your men will fall by the sword" was taken from Piccolo Cesare (1931).The relationship between Noodles and Deborah is similar to Eddie and Jean's romance from I ruggenti anni venti (1939).The Chinese theatre scenes are a tribute to La signora di Shanghai (1947).Noodles's arrival at Senator Bailey's house parallels a scene in Il grande caldo (1953).
