Estelita Rodriguez (July 2, 1928 – March 12, 1966) was a Cuban actress best known for her roles in many Roy Rogers Republic westerns, and her role in Howard Hawks' western classic ''Rio Bravo''. == Early life and career == Rodriguez's career began in 1942 when she was won a contract with MGM at the age of 14, and continued to go to MGM school in preparation to make a movie. However, MGM dropped her at the last minute, and Rodriguez traveled back to New York until 1945 when she signed a 5- picture deal with Republic. Her first movie was ''Along the Navajo Trail''. Though it made her career take a better turn, Rodriguez did not enjoy making the movie, and reportedly said the following, "Everyone treats me like a kid. I am a mother." Soon after this, she starred with western favorites Roy Rogers and Dale Evans in ''Twilight in the Sierras'' in 1950 and ''In Old Amarillo'' with Rogers. She concluded her career with Republic in 1952, and her last film was ''Jesse James Meets Frankenstein's Daughter''. In 1959, she appeared in Rio Bravo with John Wayne, Dean Martin and Walter Brennan. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Estelita Rodriguez」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
