Atlas note · Germany → United States

Scorsese and cinematographer Freddie Francis embraced high-contrast shadows, canted angles, and distorted close-ups to create a look that Scorsese himself describes as 'German Expressionistic,' citing the influence of films like Robert Wiene’s The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1920) and Fritz Lang’s M (1931).
