Mad Max: Fury Road has a number of colorful characters who, despite being referred to by name and being quite memorable, have just a couple of minutes or even seconds of screen time. Nobody could ever forget Jesus Quintana's three minutes from The Big Lebowski, or the five seconds they spent with Amazing Larry in Pee Wee's Big Adventure. What are some other memorable, colorful movie characters with names that spend three minutes or less on-screen total?
I should probably clarify that I'm not looking for characters who may make brief appearances in multiple films in the same franchise, such as Q in the James Bond movies, or a character who makes a cameo appearance in one work after having a larger role in another, like Boba Fett. There has to be 3 minutes or less of the character in the entire story or franchise or universe, total.
Also disqualified: animated characters. Part of the novelty is that a performer is well-known for a role that amounts to a just few seconds.
Also disqualified: narrators who are heard throughout a film but seen rarely.
Named characters who somehow manage less than three minutes across multiple films or TV episodes, however - like Heidi, who appears multiple times in the Twin Peaks series and film yet amasses only 40 seconds or so of screen time - that's fair game.
Thank you!

You would love the podcast "I Was There Too." He interviews (just for instance) maybe the ultimate version of this, Stephen Tobolowsky (Ned Ryerson from Groundhog Day).
First thing I thought of was Back to the Future, which has a ton of characters like this: Principal Strickland, Marvin Berry, Mayor Goldie Wilson, even the "I Think He Took His Wallet" guy from BTTF2.

It's way longer than 3 minutes, but for sheer screen-time-to-influence ratio, Alec Baldwin's 7-minute appearance in Glengarry Glen Ross is pretty much the most memorable thing in the whole film.

Response by poster: Three minutes or less! They must be named!
While Enzo and Serge and Sister Mary Stigmata are really good suggestions, I believe each has over three minutes of screen time across their franchises (even if nobody really wants to admit Beverly Hills Cop III or Blues Brothers 2000 happened). Let me know if I'm wrong.
I will give Eddie from Rocky Horror a pass, since he doesn't make it all the way to four minutes in the film... alive.
Harry Tuttle, less than three minutes? If that's true, and I think it is, that's amazing.

Best answer: "Shortest performance to be nominated for an acting Oscar:
Hermione Baddeley in Room at the Top (1959) - 2 minutes and 19 seconds."
"Hermione Baddeley's performance in the tiny role of Elspeth is shockingly effective. Baddeley's is a vivid, defining presence in Room at the Top and the actress's work in the role -- her voice, her face, her eyes -- contours the emotional texture of the narrative in ways essential to the film."
"Her presence in the film is brief, but incredibly vivid."

I think John Hurt's character "Ollivander" in Harry Potter and the Sorceror's Stone would qualify for this. I don't think that scene was more than three minutes long, and he doesn't appear again in the canon until the last pair of films. (Which I haven't seen, and maybe his part is larger in those.)
