Infamous moonshiner Marvin “Popcorn” Sutton sued the makers of the movie Roadhouse (starring Patrick Swayze and Sam Elliott) for using his likeness without his permission with the character Emmett (see photo below).

If you can’t tell which is which, the character Emmett is on the left and Popcorn is on the right.
