It may be my imagination but it seems like it alludes to the Great Gatsby in a bizarre way. "Who am I to blow against the wind" is similar to an analogy Carroway, the narrator uses in the end that spawn the famous quote "So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past." There is also a party where one of the characters is a cinematographer/photographer/movie maker, although strangely I don't believe it is /his/ party. Lastly, there is the verse about being reminded of money, which occurs in the Great Gatsby. However, in the book the main female is compared to money, not the male.
so it's probably just a whole bunch of weird coincidences.
