[HPFGU-Movie] Moody and MacDowell

[kadede]

When I was reading the book I always pictured Mad Eye as the older sales
man, in "Are you being served ?" I'm sorry I don't know his name, but I'm
talking about the small bald guy behind the counter, not Captain Peacock.
I'm not sure if he's still alive (seeing as Molly Sugden - Ms Slocomb in the
series - is in her mid 80s and he seemed about her age).

  Possibly, but he'd be great, and honestly the others are well-enough
established by movie 4 that it wouldn't be a problem.

  He's my first choice, actually.  It's all about the makeup.  Possible
Voldemort, too. And he's more in the same famous range as Rickman/Smith etc.

  Not as Moody, but DEFINITELY a candidate for Voldemort.
