Cool Hand Luke
Lots of movies where the protagonist dies but I don't know if you could call him the "hero". Scarface with Al Pacino is one of those.

This doesn't quite qualify since the character who dies isn't really a hero, but in No Country for Old Men, the bad guy wins and kills the protagonist the audience would typically root for. It was a good movie IMO.
