The actor playing Django Reinhardt is, as stated in the credits, Emil Lager, although he does look a bit like Johnny Depp.



    The Great Train Robbery (1903), The Thief of Bagdad (1924), A Trip to the Moon (1902) (A Trip to the Moon), Les Vampires (1915), The Kid (1921), and The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1920).



    The song is "Kings and Queens" by 30 Seconds to Mars. It is not included in the actual film. The other trailer contains the piece "Breath and Life" by Audiomachine.
