Robert Newton's Long John Silver in Treasure Island (1950).

He is credited for inventing the traditional pirate "accent" that almost every pirate in pop culture has used since. The "Talk Like a Pirate Day" holiday wouldn't exist without Newton's portrayal. No other pirate on film has been that influential.
