I feel like everyone is forgetting how many times Harry is told he 
has his mother's eyes in the movie..it is a clue we are a familiar 
with, but it's forshadowing none the less.  I think that whole scene 
with Lupin and Harry is really important.  Lupin mentions how Lily 
sees the beauty and greatness in people, even when they don't see it 
themselves.  I thought that was especially important considering 
that it was never mentioned in the books.  We have never been let in 
on Lily's relationship with James's friends.
