Emailed the director. The actor's name is Arlan Godthaab.

A list of his movie and TV credits can be found at https://resumes.actorsaccess.com/arlangodthaab.

Wow, thanks! While you solved the mystery of who he is, it didn't solve the mystery of why he looks so familiar to me. None of his credits jump out at me. I thought once I found out who he was, I'd look through his credits and have an aha moment. No such luck. But there are several of his movies that I'm going to watch. Thanks again!

At first glance he seemed familiar, but on closer inspection not so much. He may resemble some actor we all know or just a type we've all seen in Westerns: older, mustache, hat. If he does remind you of someone it may hit you in the future. Many times a face has reminded me of someone I couldn't initially place.

Glad I could help.
