Movie Haiku:A young Amish boy traveling with his mother witnesses a murder. Harrison Ford is the workaholic cop assigned to their case. The scene in which, together, boy & man zero in on the perp’s identity is cinematic gold. “Personal Best” for Ford & Director Peter Weir. Terrific Maurice Jarre score.
