A year ago the great Carmen Sevilla left us and we stayed orphans of an artist whose talent was immeasurable, a great career and a legacy that we continue to enjoy today.
At And Now Sonsoles we have received Marián Conde, artist and friend of Carmen Sevilla, who said that it seems like it has been a while since her death. because of the years of silence.
Furthermore, he considers that she should have had a farewell as he deserved and I’m sure he would have liked it. Marián and Carmen met through their representative and have lived many moments together.
The career of Carmen Sevilla
At the age of 16 he filmed his first film and it was precisely on the big screen where he gave the first kiss of his life to Jorge Negrete. The 50s were hers, because long before Penélope Cruz or Antonio Banderas landed in Hollywood, she arrived and dazzled.
Paramount offered him a contract to stay, but he rejected it and returned to Spain. Before, yes, he visited the most important American program of the time that catapulted the Beatles themselves: The Ed Sullivan Show.
Among his milestones is starring in the first Spanish film nominated for an Oscar: La vengancia. His filmography includes more than 70 movies and in the 90s Carmen Sevilla landed on the small screen.
For almost 20 years he accompanied us, but in 2009 he retired and lived a long illness in the strictest privacy. A discretion that also accompanied him on the day of his death on June 27, 2023, when he died without tributes and without saying goodbye to his great friends.
