More Special Actors

I've found a couple of more actors with a greater than 20% Best Picture nomination rate.

Jaye Davidson has been in only two films: The Crying Game (for which he was nominated for Best Supporting Actor) and Stargate

Martin Scorsese, the actor, has been credited in 12 films of which three were nominated: Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, and Quiz Show (which he did not direct.)

The Sound of Music is a good source of these actors as 5 of the 7 children were in four or fewer films in total. They were Charmien Carr (only film), Duane Chase (2 films) , Angela Cartwright (4 films, plus the series Lost In Space , Debbie Turner (2 films), and Kym Karath (4 films). The two older children acted more: Heather Menzies was in the classics SSSSSSS and Pihrana, and Nicholas Hammond was TV's "Amazing Spider-Man" as well as TV's Peter Parker.
