"Beauty does not come with creams and lotions. God can give us beauty, but whether that beauty remains or changes is determined by our thoughts and deeds."
-Dolores Del Rio-
Nowadays in Hollywood, some of the most beautiful women are latinas : Jennifer Lopez, Salma Hayek, Penelope Cruz. Back in the 1920's and 1930's, having latino leading stars was something rare. Of course there were some exceptions like Valentino or Ramon Novarro. One of these exceptions was Dolores Del Rio, a dazzling exotic beauty born August 3, 1905 in Durango, Mexico. She was the cousin of Ramon Novarro. Her family lost all its assets during the Mexican Revolution but she wanted to restore her comfortable lifestyle which inspired her to follow a career as an actress. In one word, she was exoticism in the movies of that time. Unfortunately, she is now a forgotten star from the Golden Era of Hollywood.
