Danny imagines his reinvention complete. "Do I look Jewish to you?!!" he explodes when interviewed by the tweedy New York Times reporter (well played by A.D. Miles) who has gleaned his story. 

(Actually, with his long cranium and death's-head 'do, Danny could double for Timothy McVeigh.) 

As Bean audaciously insists on Danny as a Jewish type—the tormented apikoris—the movie's more astute characters don't need the Times to give them the [scoop]. 

As Carla observes, only a Jew would be so obsessed with Jewishness. This cultural narcissism hardly makes anti-Semitism any less real—although the film does run the risk of suggesting that Jews are to blame for anti-Semitism, a formulation Bean attributes to Lina Moebius. 

Even before anyone suspects Danny might be Jewish, the fascists recognize him as an intellectual. (Why waste time with street brawls when he could be fundraising?) 

What they don't understand is that, closet Nietzschean that he is, Danny is casting himself as another Samson.
