Eddie Felson, not Faston.

I'd throw in Sal, Al Pacino's character in "Dog Day Afternoon".

I was about mentioning DDA. Epic movie with Pacino's best ever performance. Sonny is sure iconic character, though Tony Montana would be my pick for Pacino's most iconic role.

For Audrey Hepburn I would add Eliza Doolittle
