I didn't see the movie JFK, but I can imagine Gary Oldman as Oswald. I 
*did* see him in The Fifth Element (speaking of *weird* movies), and he was 
extremely creepy in that movie. I could definitely see him as Peter 
Pettigrew... but not as Lupin OR Sirius. <Sigh> Well, it sounds like the 
PoA casting is pretty far along by now so maybe we'll see some other big 
announcements soon.  Happy New Year, everyone!
