Silvia Pinal Movies
Distinguished Mexican stage actress Silvia Pinal made her earliest screen appearance in 1948. Best known for her classical roles, she was equally famous for her work in the films of Luis Bunuel, notably her performances as the title character in Viridiana (1961) and as the Devil in Simon of the Desert (1965). Almost as well-publicized as her acting career was her private life, specifically her four high-profile marriages to director Rafael Banquelis, producer Gustavo Alatriste, popular singer Enrique Guzman, and Mexican governor Tulio Hernandez. In addition to her acting credits, she has also flourished as a recording artist, and during her marriage to Gov. Hernandez was elected to public office herself. Several of Silvia Pinal's children have followed their mother's footsteps with show business careers of their own. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
