Default Easy Rider / One Flew Over

Are these the first two widely popular movies where the Hero's lose at the end?

Cool Hand Luke came to mind immediately. I'm sure there have to be others.

I [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] EasyRider. If you have the DVD, you HAVE TO watch the version with the directors explaining every scene. It will make you happy. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

This is quite common today. Audiences are more accepting of "unhappy endings" than they were in the 50s/60s

Let's take it back to 1933 with King Kong. Or how about The Hunchback of Notre Dame made in 1923 with Lon Chaney?
