Isn't that Harrison Ford in an uncredited appearance? I've gone through the ending credits twice and he is not listed. He was originally offered the role of Oskar Schindler which he turned down and he then later said it was one of the biggest mistakes of his acting career. Maybe Spielberg gave him a cameo appearance?

That's Ben Kingsley in the picture. Agreed.

How can you get Harrison Ford and Ben Kingsley mixed up? How many times you watched the movie?

I didn't know that Ford turned down the role of Oskar Schindler. It worked out for the best anyway since I don't think he would have topped Liam Neeson's performance imho.

I think CG meant that the SS officer who is yelling at Ben Kingsley's character was being played by Harrison Ford. I was thinking the same but didn't post because of the extra pix of Kingsley.

Ford was also considered for Hanks' role in Saving Private Ryan.

How can you get Harrison Ford and Ben Kingsley mixed up? How many times you watched the movie? About 10 times. He DOES look like Harrison Ford. If you really analyze it, Ford hasn't really had a very good commercially successful movie career outside of the Star Wars and Indiana Jones franchise. He had a couple of hits here and there like Air Force One and The Fugitive and the Jack Ryan films. DON'T say 'you forgot Blade Runner, CG2015!'. Blade Runner was a box office commercial failure! Most every thing else Ford has been in has flopped or performed poorly at the box office. Furthermore some of his movie roles choices over the decades have been questionable.

His career slow down didn't really start in earnest until "Hollywood Homicide" in 2003. With the exception of the Star Wars and Indiana Jones films almost all of his films since 2002 have been box office losers. Before 2003 though his box office success was nearly unstoppable.
