On April 8, a century ago, Mar\u00eda F\u00e9lix (Sonora, April 8, 1914\u2014Mexico City, April 8, 2002), also known as La Do\u00f1a Mar\u00eda Bonita, was born. She was a famed Mexican Actress, one of the great figures of the golden age of Mexican cinema.<\/p>\n

Her huge film presence, personality and exceptional beauty made this actress \u200b\u200ba Mexican icon of luxury, elegance and intelligence. Irreverent and rebellious, F\u00e9lix was fearless in expressing her opinions in politics, the arts and life in the Mexico of her time.<\/p>\n

Representing both artistry and mythology, her personality allowed her to seamlessly fuse her unique style and temperament with characters and stories she portrayed.<\/p>\n

In her career, La Do\u00f1a filmed 47 movies, all costarring talented actors including Pedro Armendariz, Arturo de Cordova, Jorge Negrete, Pedro Infante, Ignacio L\u00f3pez Tarso, and Emilio Fern\u00e1ndez, among others. Fel\u00edx married Agust\u00edn Lara (who immortalized her by composing the song \u201cMaria Bonita\u201d in her honor) and Jorge Negrete.<\/p>\n

For many, Do\u00f1a B\u00e1rbara (1943) was the pinnacle of her film career. Her role in this film would further define the features of this woman who, through her speech, stressed the value of women in a developing Mexico.<\/p>\n

Symbols of her personality could always be found in her elegant style, as she often fashioned a hat and cigar.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
