Anyone see the resemblance?

The pic on the right is Michael Douglas in "Falling Down", a movie described by the tagline "The adventures of an ordinary man at war with the everyday world."

3. Except this guy would've become Beck's best friend...

This is the film's fascistic character. When William Foster is being chased by the police and needs a place to hide this guy lets him hide out behind the curtains of his store. Afterwords he shows him all of his Nazi memorabilia, including his valued Zyclon B death gas container which was used to kills Jews. A confrontation ensues and William Foster proclaims the right to free speech, "the right to disagree." This didn't go over well with the army navy guy as he threatens to have the guy arrested. Foster fights back and stabs the guy with a knife before killing him and stealing a bazooka.

MovieProp

There would be no "confrontation." They would agree that their speech is the only "free speech."
