So why does this man look so much like Malcolm McDowell? And why do they play Beethoven's 9th when he blows things up in

I'm back, and how funny is this-
I relayed the gist of this message board to a friend of mine who said that her boyfriend had mistaken Terrence Stamp for Malcolm McDowell when they were watching Get Smart. If you've seen Get Smart, remember the whole thing about the 9th and "Operation Joy"? Well, he thought that part of Get Smart was hysterical, when he thought it was McDowell, as he's a great Clockwork Orange fan. She told him, "that was not Malcolm McDowell, it was Terrence Stampthey just look a lot alike." He said, "Well then that makes Get Smart a lot less funny."
Is it just me, or does the poison taste different today? -

They don't look like twins but are close in age and have white hair and wrinkly faces and there's something of a rebel about them. And of course they've both played villains. They are sort of interchangable (because they've played similiar kinds of roles) a bit like Jeremy Irons and Alan Rickman and Gary Oldman and Tim Roth are (or used to be). If one's not available, call the other one up!

Exactly,their is something of a devil-may-care,certainly cool and rebellious trait to both their personalities..and apart from their facial similarity,they've ha5b4ve an eye-catching screen presence in whichever films they act in!

Something tells me Bethesda wanted Stamp (who was in Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion) to voice the President in Fallout 3. They ended up hiring McDowell instead.

i just watched "the limey" trailer and was stunned not to see malcolm mcdowell's name on the list that's when i came here to see if anyone else had made the same connection i had. yes, they do look eerily similar.

I just found out they are not the same person. Maybe for the trained eye they are totally diferent but for me they have the same facial structure
If I ever met Daniel Craig I would only say two words: AHHHHHH! AHHHHHH! -

Yes, they do quite resemble one another now that they're older, but certainly not as young men. It's funny how that works. I used to get Christopher Walken and Willem Dafoe confused in the late 80's or so. Now they look nothing at all alike to me.
I need my 1987 DG20 Casio electric guitar set to mandolin, yeah
