I found The Naked Witch which was written and directed by Claude Alexander & Larry Buchanan, and Me and My Brother which was written and directed by Robert Frank but because he used Ginsberg poems, perhaps you mean Love and Death written and directed by Woody Allen. I also saw On a Paving Stone Mounted was written and directed by Thaddeus O'Sullivan.
Wait, I now see that What's Up Superdoc! was both directed and written by Derek Ford. That's four films where the director also wholely wrote the screenplay.
You're having me on, aren't you? There aren't three films where the director also starred - only two - Love and Death, and Yentl.
(If not, can't I just get half the votes for getting half the answer right?)

Can you split the votes on this one? Say, only vote for my getting the writer/directors and maybe someone else will figure out which other two films the directors also starred in?
You have found the deliberate mistake and I will award you bonus votes for this! But keep trying on the rest.

Rock Follies Season Two:
The Loony Tunes
The Divorce
The Real Life
I'm going to take a punt at 'The Real Life' for the bath scene.
That'll do from me I don't have enough reviews to warrant snaffling votes

Not that I need the votes but...
SUPERMAN II was where you played the deceptively small yet pivotal role of a football fan.
The deletion of your scenes from the cinema version was an abomination on a par with the studio changes to "The Magnificent Ambersons", although, thankfully, the TV version still keeps it, allowing the full artistic merit of SUPERMAN II to be enjoyed by the discerning viewer.

Are the other two Bill Melendez in The Lion, the Witch & the Wardrobe and Dick Deadeye, or Duty Done?

That would be Mark Herman, future director of "Little Voice", "Brassed Off", "Purely Belter" and "Hope Springs".
"Unusual Ground Floor Conversion" starred Adrian Dunbar, who was also in "Pleasure" with you, and the lovely Roy Kinnear who was in "Eskimo Nell".
"Eskimo Nell" was directed by Martin Campbell whose most recent work was Bond reviver "Casino Royale".
Phew!
