Movie scenes where a helmet/mask/cover is pulled off to reveal someone's face?


trying to find movies with scenes like this where a mask is unwillingly pulled off to reveal someone's identity or face much to the chagrin of the character. So not voluntary like in most mission impossible scenes.

some examples:

Braveheart: William Wallace removing Robert the Bruce's helmet.
Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice - superman removes batmans mask.
Mission Impossible: Fallout - Bad guys remove Benji's fake face.
Watchmen - Rorschach's mask removed by police
Man in the iron mask films - I am assume this happens in these films, perhaps?

I figure most scenes might be from superhero flicks but any ones out of that genre would be a plus!
