I'm a bit surprised that no one has mentioned Die Hard yet. Or A Christmas Story.
I've always liked Witness also; have seen it several times.
The child actor (Lukas Hass) who played that cute Amish boy, grew up to portray a real-life serial killer in this movie. https://moviechat.org/tt11656220/Midnight-in-the-Switchgrass. Yeah, it's not that good of a movie, as its rating indicates, but I thought he did an adequate job with the role.
Fantastic film. Possibly my favorite Harrison Ford role.
Haas is one of those people whose face barely changed from childhood. He’s had a long and interesting career, including a great indie neo-noir mystery Brick (2005).
Nathan for You fans will appreciate that he was also in the 1988 film The Wizard of Loneliness.

Yeah, I recognized him immediately in Midnight in the Switchgrass. There was some other obscure film of his I can't remember the title of anymore where I did the same.
