The thing is that you were meant to confuse Raleigh (white main) and Chuck (young Aussie.) Chuck is a direct parallel of who Raleigh was before *spoiler* the death of his brother. They could have been twins, except when it came right down to it, Raleigh had experienced enough to change. Chuck didn't get a chance to.

/one of my favorite parts in the movie

Yes, but the problem with that kind of lookalike symbolism is that it's hard to see it if you spend the rest of the movie wonder who's on screen, without solid and distinct enough characterization to be able to tell (say, from body language alone) which one is which.

You're allowed to have two characters that look alike, and you're allowed to have some kind of "they're the same except this one's an asshole" symbolism, but for the love of whatever you deem worthy, you are not allowed to confuse your audience so broadly and immediately that they literally cannot tell two of the main characters apart.
