The very first time I saw Ralph Fiennes (my not-picked candidate for 
Lupin), he played the extremely evil Nazi commandant in Schindler's 
List. He was extremely *not* dapper; in fact he looked bloated and 
not particularly good looking (i.e. nothing like his real self). So 
I'm convinced he could also play gaunt and haunted, which would be 
the other extreme.
