Type of usage in this example

The film was an iconic yet much imitated work, the title of which apparently came from a patron of a video store where the director used to work, who referred to Au Revoir les Enfants as that reservoir dog movie, a phrase he liked so much he decided to use it for his first film.


Is this two noun phrases together? What are the head words of the phrases ?
