Great look-a-like for Oswald


Always hard to find someone to carry off the look and manner of an iconic figure but I thought Jeremy Strong had more than a good passing resemblance to Lee Harvey Oswald.

My candidate for Oswald dead-ringer is Sean Payton - coach of the New Orleans Saints - especially when he's wearing his visor.

Ha ha, I never noticed that. You are right on.

They didn't give him the black-eye and forehead cut that can be seen in the mug shot and films from the day.

"Well, there it is."

I think Gary Oldman has done the best portrayal of Oswald. He did a good impression of Oswald's rather smug attitude, and the pursed lips he always had.

Okay, well... filibuster.

What i thought was interesting was that Oswald's brother was actually similar in looks at certain shots.

Swing away, Merrill....Merrill, swing away...
