Can anyone name the old movies he was watching on his wall of televisions? I managed to spot "The Third Man" which juxtaposed the zither theme from that film into this film.

I think Roman Holiday, but I'm not super familiar with that movie, but The Third man was highlighted the most for a reason. Newton doesn't age and has to move around and stay in hiding.

The trivia section lists several, but I think it's very incomplete. There are so many and they're seen so fleetingly.
