Luis Antonio Damaso de Alonso, later known as Gilbert Roland, was born in 1905 in Mexico. Following his parents to the USA, he did not become the bullfighter he had dreamed of being but became an actor instead. His Mexican roots, his half macho half romantic ways, his handsome virile figure helped him land roles in movies from the early twenties to 1982. A long and varied career in which Roland was in turns an extra, a matinée idol (Armand Duval in Camille (1926)), a Latin Lover, a star of English-speaking films made in Hollywood in the early 1930s, a Mexican bandit in B-Movies, The Cisco Kid in a series of six popular Westerns, a brilliant character in major A movies (John Huston's We Were Strangers (1949), Vincente Minnelli's The Bad and the Beautiful (1952); Anthony Mann's Thunder Bay (1953), John Ford's Cheyenne Autumn (1964)), a sinister character in Spaghetti Westerns... When he retired in 1982, twelve years before he died, he could be satisfied. His career had spanned six decades, the coming of sound had not ended it, he had played in all kinds of movies, he had held the most beautiful women in his arms, and maybe the most important thing, he had been given the opportunity to show his acting talents. Not every actor can boast such a life achievement.

Death comes soon enough so why kill yourself crying about it?

I don&#39;t have any delusions about myself as an actor. I&#39;m grateful for being able to find enough work all these years.

[on <a class="ipc-md-link ipc-md-link--entity" href="/name/nm0000036/?ref_=nmqu_qu">Buster Keaton</a>] He was brilliant. One of the greatest, one of the most wonderful, altruistic men I&#39;ve ever met.

You go everywhere, do everything, still there are some places you can&#39;t forget. The people and the land. If you forget the beauty of your youth, you are no more than an animal.

I am a Spaniard, but Mexico is my second fatherland.

Make each day count. Be happy. Believe in God. Dream of the past if you will but don&#39;t live in it.
