**One and Done – People Who Have Only One Credited Movie Appearance** _(for this one, TV movies DO NOT count)_ 1. Klinton Spilsbury – The Legend of the Lone Ranger (1981) 2. Peter Ostrum - Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (1971) 3. Dennis Wilson - Two-Lane Blacktop (1971) Plenty of soundtrack credits and music video appearances, but his only credited movie role was that of the Mechanic, in Two-Lane Blacktop. ---
