10 Best Movie Characters Who Appear In Only One Scene

9. Paige Tico - Star Wars: The Last Jedi

Pulp Fiction
Lucasfilm

The Last Jedi is one of the most opinion-splitting movies in recent memory. While some lauded Rhian Johnson's 2017 as a piece of cinematic genius, others lambasted the film as the worst Star Wars picture, period.

Regardless of your thoughts on the eighth standard entry in the grander Skywalker Saga, one thing that audiences seemed to all agree on is that Paige Tico was one of the very best parts of the film.

Like the rest of the characters included in this article, Paige is somebody who was only a minor presence in her one-time silver screen appearance. But what an impression Ngo Thanh Van's character left!

Faced with horrendous odds (never tell me the odds, right?), the first impactful scene of The Last Jedi saw Paige sacrifice herself for the greater good. As the sole person left alive during a bombing run to destroy one of the First Order's hefty Hammer ships, Paige doesn't think twice about gritting her teeth and embracing the explosion and death that will come the way of both herself and those villainous First Order sort.

From there, we'd end up meeting Paige's sister Rose, who would go on to become a pivotal part of The Last Jedi... before being horrendously treated like a total afterthought in The Rise of Skywalker.
