James Dean
Though he only had three main roles in films before his death, he will forever have a spot in Hollywood history. He received two Oscar nominations and was known all around the world for his charming good looks and raw emotions on the screen. Even decades after his death, he still continues to show up here and there in pop culture, like his name in a song or his style in a movie.

Richard Burton
For getting seven Oscar nominations and two marriages to Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton lived a pretty great life! He had tough-guy looks and a personality that could intrigue anyone, which is probably how he was able to play the roles of intellectual men so frequently. He had some roles in the London Theatre, Broadway, and Hollywood, but all of his roles were incredible.
