Jimmy Olsson who plays Pär's adversary ....

I don't think Jimmy Olsson is credited in the movie for playing the bully fighting Pär - unless his real name is Jan Olsson. The disk commentary reveals he was a pop musician who wanted to appear playing live with his band at the Domino club, but because of his height and imposing presence, he got this role instead!

Jimmy Olsson can be heard playing bass on Björn Afzelius' albums, and I found this clip from 2009, where he's playing bass at some concert by Sam Vesterberg (who replaced Afzelius in the band), and despite the 40 (!) years that have gone by, you can instantly see it's him:

Fascinating! How time flies like an arrow, how fruit flies like a banana.

One thing that's always puzzled me is the confrontation in the movie, where the bully says "You bumped against my knee" (Du stötte emot mitt knä). They don't even come close! Was he just trying to pick a fight?
