Live Poll: Memorable One-Scene Characters

Great idea and list. I would have added Rutger Hauer as Curtiz from Knockin' on Heaven's Door (1997) (although IMDb lacks a photo) and Dick Miller from The Terminator (1984) (here we have a photo!). There are actually a lot of great one-scene wonder cameos, but usually they are uncredited or only credited in the end credits to preserve the effect of surprise, while here we have a list of top-billed one-scene appearances, so the two I've mentioned are of the same type.  

ElM,

I removed the duplicate text in your post.

ElM,

Interesting idea. There are so many memorable performances that I will have to think about this.

I'm assuming that you will exclude Alfred Hitchcock and other director cameos from this poll.

Philip Seymour Hoffman has been said to be one of the best actors to do so much even with just a little bit of screen time so I'm thinking he might have at least one performance that fits. I haven't seen 'Hard Eight' (1996) in a long time but I know this: his performance was incredibly powerful and memorable, can find photos of him in only one outfit and background, and he is not a named character. I can't say for sure that he was only in one scene but I highly suspect it. Wikipedia says he appears only briefly but doesn't specify. This article speaks of the intensity and brilliance of Hoffman's performance and also of his very small role but, again, it doesn't specify: http://www.dazeddigital.com/artsandculture/article/31498/1/your-guide-to-paul-thomas-anderson-s-firs...
Other articles in Rolling Stone and other publications say much of the same thing but doesn't say exactly how many scenes he was in. I'd bet it was one scene, though. 

ElM,

My vote:

DANCER
Cyd Charisse
Singin' in the Rain

My Vote: Mark Hanna

ElM,

Did you see rubyfruit76's suggestion above?

Otherwise, do you consider this poll ready?

Nice.

That scene from Mississippi Burning made the mayor my pick for the R. Lee Ermey poll.

FYC:
Colonel Kilgore - Apocalypse Now
Boo Radley - To Kill a Mockingbird (??? It's been a while)
Leon - Dog Day Afternoon
Jive Lady - Airplane
Econ teacher - Ferris Bueller
Dr. Hineman - Minority Report
The Penguin - The Blues Brothers
Bill Murray - Zombieland
Chet - Barton Fink
Victor nettoyeur - La Femme Nikita
Topher Grace - Ocean's Eleven
Cozy Carlisle - Dead Again
Beaumont Livingston - Jackie Brown
The Blind Hermit - Young Frankenstein
Charlie Sheen - Ferris Bueller
The Wolfe - Pulp Fiction
Errol Flynn - The Aviator
Vincent Price - Edward Scissorhands
Lapadite - Inglourious Basterds
Ellie (Carl's wife) - Up
Cardinal Glick - Dogma
Miracle Max and Valerie - Princess Bride
Chazz Reinhold - Wedding Crashers

Oh man, it's a shame that among the many images in the gallery, there's not one for Tadek Lokcinski as the old man in the toilet in La Haine (1995). But I had to mention him, people are still talking about the meaning of that scene.

This poll is so good. Do you consider it to be complete? Or do you want to add any of the suggestions above?

Congratulations, ElM!
