There's nothing like finally being recognized for your work after years of toil, but some actors receive their honors a little late in life. In fact, some actors die just days after receiving an Oscar, which is both an ironic biographical twist, and a testament to the energy and ability they brought to their craft. This happens a little more often than you probably think, and the history of cinema is filled with examples of late-blooming stars, or at least performers who did not come out on top of award ceremonies until very late in life. These are actors who gave Oscar-winning performances just before they died.
