scandalous icon: maría félix - an analysis

“I am a woman with a heart of a man.” - María Félix

Another personal favourite of mine here. She was known as “La Doña”. She was the inspiration for the classic French song “Je l’aime a mourir”. One of the biggest stars and “the most beautiful face” of the Golden Age of Mexican Cinema, María Félix inspired many, not only because of her beauty but also because of her fierce, strong character, her cold and haughty personality, her tall and proud gait and the disdain of her raised eyebrow, traits that led her to be considered the first Mexican “femme fatale”. A true Aries, she played roles which challenged the definition of traditional femininity. Due to her beauty, popularity, and distinctive voice, she served as a muse to many artists of the day, including artist Diego Rivera, writer Octavio Paz, and the many fashion houses who dressed her, including jeweler Cartier. Legend has it that she was discovered one day while walking down the streets of Mexico City. She was given the opportunity to go to Hollywood and meet with director Cecil B. DeMille, but she rejected any movie offers she got from America. Had she decided to go to Hollywood and crossover to Anglo audiences like her contemporaries Dolores del Río and Lupe Vélez, she would have been bigger than them both, since she naturally possessed the best of both worlds: she had the majesty, regal bearing, glamour, beauty, and class of del Río, as well as the ego, confidence, sex positivity, willfulness, bravery, fire, and authenticity of Vélez. She didn’t need Hollywood’s help to become a star. Must be that Cancer dominance shining through. However, staying true to her roots and who she was, she preferred instead to stay in her beloved Mexico and become the timeless icon that she is. And she did it her way.

María Félix, according to astrotheme, was an Aries sun and Virgo moon. She was born María de los Ángeles Félix Güereña in Álamos, Sonora to a military officer and his wife. Her father was an imperious dictator over his middle-class household. A classic macho who hid his emotions, he beat his sons and ignored his daughters. Her mother, Josefina Guereña, bore 16 children, of which 12 survived. María was the ninth. She was extremely close to her brother Pablo, so much so that her mother suspected that it might be incestual. So she separated them, sending Pablo away to military school and relocating to Guadalajara. By the age of 17, Félix’s incredible beauty started attracting a lot of attention, and she won the crowned the Beauty Queen at the University of Guadalajara. Around the same time, Maria Felix met her first husband Enrique Alvarez Alatorre, a cosmetics salesman for Max Factor. In 1931, after a brief whirlwind romance, they married. Four years later, at the age of 21, she gave birth to her only child, a son, Enrique, affectionately nicknamed Quique. Her husband was jealous and rough. Félix became unhappy, and after a brief affair with a college student, she obtained a divorce. Once she found her son wearing a white dress and necklace. Infuriated, she beat him unconscious. Álvarez retaliated by taking their son to Guadalajara. Years later Félix was able to get her son back with the help of her second husband, Agustín Lara.

Later, she moved to Mexico City where she briefly worked in a plastic surgeon’s office, modeling for the patients the beauty they could aspire to, though she supposedly received no surgery herself. She was discovered one day while walking down the streets of Mexico City by director Fernando Palacios. Her response: "When I want to, it will be through the big door." Félix never studied acting in any formal sense, but improvised her own approach to movie parts and to the cameraman's lens. It was with her third film, Doña Barbara (1943), that Félix's star began to rise.Félix and de Fuentes filmed together another two films: La Mujer sin Alma (1944) and La Devoradora (1946). As María Félix herself said, "With these films, I became the number one enemy of the Mexican family morals." Somehow, I seduced the public, even those who criticize the conduct of my characters in the films. My legend began to take shape without moving a finger. The public imagination did everything for me.” She became so powerful that she exerted great influence over lighting, camera angles, scenario, wardrobe and other aspects of films usually reserved for producers and directors. Enamorada (1947) was a welcome relief from iconic melodramas. Félix made 18 films during the 1940s, and continued to work in Mexico until 1970, by which time she had completed 47 movies. In Europe and in Mexico during the 1950's, she worked with eminent European directors like Jean Renoir and Luis Buñuel and leading men like Gérard Philipe and Yves Montand. Her second marriage was to the famous Mexican composer Agustín Lara. Félix was a fan of Lara since her adolescence. Lara immortalized Félix in a number of songs, especially the famous theme "María Bonita", composed in Acapulco during their honeymoon. "María Bonita" would become one of Lara's most popular Lara songs. However, the relationship ended in 1947 due to Lara's jealousy. Félix said that Lara even tried to kill her in a fit of violent jealousy.

In 1953, when Félix returned to Mexico after her stay in Europe and Argentina, she was reunited with an "old enemy": the actor and singer Jorge Negrete. Unlike their difficult first meeting ten years ago on the set of El peñón de las ánimas, Félix found Negrete, in her own words: "surrendered to my feet", probably due to his chronic illness. After a brief romance, the couple married later that year. From the end of 1950 to the spring of 1954, Félix also had a passionate lesbian affair with Suzanne Baulé, better-known as Frede, who at the time ran the cabaret Le Carroll's on Rue de Ponthieu in Paris, and the two women lived together at the Hotel George-V. Félix and Frede's relationship was interrupted by Félix's marriage to Jorge Negrete. Negrete succumbed to his illness eleven months after their marriage, and Félix's appearance at his funeral, dressed in trousers, caused a huge scandal, which led Félix to take refuge in Europe. She returned to Paris to briefly rekindle her relationship with Frede. However, they would violently break-up for good in 1954, leading to a trial in which Félix wanted to take back jewellery she had given to Frede and accused her of theft. Félix lost her lawsuit, and Frede was acquitted and kept the jewellery. Her fourth marriage, was with the Romanian-born French banker Alexander Berger. Félix was married to Berger for 18 years. She tried becoming a mother again, but an accident during filming in 1957 caused Félix to lose the child. It was at this time that she built her famous home, La Casa de las Tortugas (The House of Turtles). Berger died in 1974 of lung cancer months after the death of her mother, which plunged her into a deep depression. Her last romantic relationship was the Russian-French painter Antoine Tzapoff. About him, Félix said: “I don't know if he's the man who has most loved me, but he's who has loved me better.”

She appeared once on screen with her contemporary Dolores del Río (with whom she felt no rivalry) in the film La Cucaracha in 1958. She collected fine antiques. She consorted with the rich and famous all her life. She was also a jewelry connoisseur and had an extensive jewelry collection, including the 41.37 carat , D-flawless Ashoka diamond. In 1968, she commissioned a serpent diamond necklace from Cartier Paris. The result was a completely articulated serpent made out of platinum and white gold and encrusted with 178.21 carats of diamonds. In 1975, she again asked Cartier to create a necklace for her, this time in the shape of two crocodiles. The two crocodile bodies were made of 524.9 grams of gold, one covered with 1,023 yellow diamonds, while the other was adorned with 1,060 circular cut emeralds. Later she sold most of her jewelry back to Cartier's. She also left a Rolls-Royce in Paris. King Farouk of Egypt allegedly offered her Nefertiti's crown for one night of love. She did a television series, “La Constitución” (1970). In her lifetime, she won three Ariel awards (the Mexican equivalent of the Oscars) for best actress. Félix was dressed by designers like Christian Dior, Givenchy, Yves Saint Laurent, Chanel, and Balenciaga and in 1984, was nominated in France and Italy as one of the world's best-dressed women. The House of Hermès designed extravagant creations just for her. In 1985, she won a lifetime achievement award and the Mexico City Prize. In 1996, she became the first Latin American woman to be made commandeur de l'ordre des arts et des lettres by the French government. Félix spent her later years moving between Paris, where she owned a racehorse stable, and Mexico City. She remained the subject of media interest, including a four-hour television programme. The unexpected death of her son Enrique from a heart attack in 1996 affected her greatly. After leaving an indelible mark in Latin American cinema, Maria Félix passed away in her sleep on on her 88th birthday, April 8th, 2002. Her remains were buried in her family’s tomb inside Mexico City.

Next, I’ll talk about another Latin film star who made waves in the industry: Taurus Anthony Quinn.

Overall personality snapshot: Whichever way she was, there will often be times when she wished she was doing the opposite. She wanted to throw caution to the wind and follow her creative impulses, yet habit, and her easily aroused sense of guilt, seem to demand that she live her life for others in the fulfilment of the endless duties that life seems to place in her path. This meant that she often find herself torn between the desire to be selfish and do her own thing, and the tug of duty and the worthy cause. Despite her natural modesty, she was in fact impatient to be where the action is, and to be in command of the show, because she usually had clear ideas of how things should be done. She could be self-effacing, disciplined and conventional yet also highly forthright, argumentative, judgmental and outspoken. Whatever her inward sense of inadequacy, she liked to be the one giving the orders, and expected to be obeyed (though she may protest too loudly to be convincing that this was not the case). She wanted everything and everyone to fit into well-defined roles and was likely to have strong likes and dislikes. Whilst this may put some people’s backs up, she soon gained others’ respect with her forthright, upfront manner and probably boisterous, and at times outrageous, sense of humour.

Her inner creativity caught fire in those areas where her natural self-assertion and penchant for being in charge married with her reliable, realistic, conscientious, dutiful and perfectionist approach to the work in hand. She was likely to be efficient and effective in whatever she set herself to do and could flourish in senior management and administration, though she found the earlier rungs of the ladder frustrating. Her strong powers of analysis enabled her to identify the most effective course of action in any situation, and when she got herself together she found that she had natural flair as an entrepreneur and organizer. Added to her strong need to make her mark and her natural qualities of leadership, this was a combination that would find itself at home in the armed services, or in any work that required strength of character and a desire to be of real service to society. As a creative artist she was the classic craftswoman, combining passion with sheer technical skill and mastery and an eye for detail. As she matured, her toughness and modesty could develop into a nobility of spirit inclining her to “little, nameless, unremembered acts of kindness and of love” which helped make the world a better place.

She was the most youthful-looking of the zodiac with veritable Peter Pan looks. She had neat, sharp facial features and a wiry frame. She was intuitive and artistic and, at times, over-sensitive. She could also be a little secretive. She had many levels. It really depended on her mood as to how well her thought processes operated. When it came to careers, she may have felt initially vague or confused about what she really wanted to do. She was eventually forced to give up her career of choice by events out of her control (due to her eventual aging). There was probably some element of self-sacrifice involved somewhere in her choice of career (the element of sacrifice being that she had to sacrifice being a crossing over to a wider audience in Hollywood in favor of holding true to herself and her Mexican roots). Her sometimes erratic behaviour depended on her mood. She tended to have very strong intuitions about things and generally felt optimistic about the future. This gave her faith in his ability to succeed, and she could be very impatient with those who gave up without at least trying. She showed strong imagination and originality, and felt that by using her intellect to create, analyze and develop new ideas, she was allowing herself to grow. Her mental abilities were likely to be the strongest and best expressed in the sciences, music and philanthropy. She was socially adept and enjoyed an extensive social life, although it may have operated on a fairly superficial level. Sometimes she may have found it difficult communicating effectively, and in such cases she relied on the facts to speak for themselves. Her attitudes and ideas tended to be on the conservative side, but they were profound and she was able to constructively develop and apply them. She was very serious about everything that gained her attention, although high nervous tension plunged her into periods of depression. At times, she could lack emotional warmth, preferring her life to be ordered and disciplined. When things didn’t go her way, she could fall into a bout of depression or feel very bitter and vindictive. Her sense of humour tended to be rather black and low-key.

She belonged to a generation in which humanitarian ideals became extremely important, as well as the belief in absolute freedom for every individual. As a member of this generation, she came up with radical new ideas which she stubbornly followed. Knowledge was acknowledged as bringing freedom. As a member of this generation, she felt deep spiritual convictions, although she may not have seen herself as religious in the traditional sense of the word. She was part of an emotionally sensitive generation that was extremely conscious of the domestic environment and the atmosphere surrounding her home place and home country. In fact, she could be quite nostalgic about his homeland, religion and traditions, often seeing them in a romantic light. She felt a degree of escapism from everyday reality, and was very sensitive to the moods of those around her. She embodied all of these Cancer Neptunian ideals. As a Gemini Plutonian, she was mentally restless and willing to examine and change old doctrines, ideas and ways of thinking. As a member of this generation, she showed an enormous amount of mental vitality, originality and perception. Traditional customs and taboos were examined and rejected for newer and more original ways of doing things. As opportunities with education expanded, she questioned more and learned more. As a member of this generation, having more than one occupation at a time would not have been unusual to her.

Love/sex life: She was an easy-going lover who didn’t like to rush. She avoided the emotional extremes of other lovers because she was more practical and more inclined to concentrate on the pleasures of the body rather than the angst of her inner child. She was one of the sexiest lovers, a person who combined layers and layers of emotional complexity with a surface that was totally devoted to fun. By nature she was a quiet, conservative lover but her love of pleasure often got in the way of this cautious approach and brought her much more attention than she would like. Her appreciation of physical pleasure combined with her emotional sensitivity made her doubly dependent upon the person she loved. Material security was just as important as emotional security to her and she expected her lover to provide her with both. These high expectations not only limited her choice of partners, they placed her in a very vulnerable position if she made the wrong choice. Fortunately, she was a very practical lover, as well as an extremely cautious one, and she rarely found herself at a disadvantage for long.

minor asteroids and points:

North Node: Pisces

Lilith: Aries

Vertex: Scorpio

Fortune: Scorpio

East Point: Gemini

Her North Node in Pisces dictated that she needed to develop her emotions and overall sensitivity. She needed to try to be less critical and demanding of both herself and others. Her Lilith in Aries ensured that she was a woman who used sex as a weapon in her arsenal and wasn’t too subtle about it. Circumstances forced her into confrontation and having to wave her “freak flag” early on in life. She pioneered frank treatment of sexual desire and took it on and copped the criticism for it. Her Part of Fortune in Scorpio and Part of Spirit in Taurus dictated that that her destiny lay in cultivating ambition and power as she fearlessly delved into the unknown. She attempted to use her power wisely. Her joy was found by stripping away the outer layers of experiences and getting to the core. No plan or plot was too complex to use in her pursuit of happiness and success. Her soul’s purpose asked her to create and comfort for herself and those around her. She felt spiritual connections and the spark of the divine in the tangible things around her—what she could taste, touch, smell, see and hear. East Point in Gemini dictated that she was often insatiably curious and loved to collect little bits of (what seems to be useless) information and trivia. Her interests were quite varied, and she may have been somewhat scattered. Sometimes her curiosity could appear cold and callous as her level of objectivity was potentially high. There was usually an openness to learning in any situation. Vertex in Scorpio, 5th house dictated that she had a desire or continual need for feeling irresistible and irreplaceable on all levels of intimacy, whether spiritual, intellectual, emotional, or physical. From the fires of hell to the heights of heaven, the further and deeper the range of interaction she could experience with another the more fulfilling. She had a childlike orientation, in all of its manifestations, toward relationships on an internal level. That implicit trust, or perhaps naivete, that was instilled in our childhood persisted far into maturity. The concomitant explosions and occasional tantrums when these constructs are violated also accompany this position. She had a need for fun, creativity, and excitement in a committed relationship, no matter how many years it has endured. She often had deep fears, typical of children, of abandonment, as well as a need for universal acceptance, no matter how she acted, which she needed her partner to respect and nurture, rather than rebuke, especially in adulthood.

elemental dominance:

air

water

She was communicative, quick and mentally agile, and she liked to stir things up. She was likely a havoc-seeker on some level. She was oriented more toward thinking than feeling. She carried information and the seeds of ideas. Out of balance, she lived in her head and could be insensitive to the feelings of others. But at her best, she helped others form connections in all spheres of their daily lives. She had high sensitivity and elevation through feelings. Her heart and her emotions were her driving forces, and she couldn’t do anything on earth if she didn’t feel a strong effective charge. She needed to love in order to understand, and to feel in order to take action, which caused a certain vulnerability which she should (and often did) fight against. She was dynamic and passionate, with strong leadership ability.

modality dominance:

mutable

She wasn’t particularly interested in spearheading new ventures or dealing with the day-to-day challenges of organization and management. She excelled at performing tasks and producing outcomes. She was flexible and liked to finish things. Was also likely undependable, lacking in initiative, and disorganized. Had an itchy restlessness and an unwillingness to buckle down to the task at hand. Probably had a chronic inability to commit—to a job, a relationship, or even to a set of values.

house dominants:

11th

2nd

12th

Globally aware, she put emphasis on her friends and acquaintances, as well as the influence of groups and societies on her life. Her general hopes and aspirations revealed themselves, as well as how well she functioned as part of a system. This extended to how she manifested her creativity against the background of the community. The material side of life including money and finances, income and expenditure, and worldly goods was emphasized in her life. Also the areas of innate resources, such as her self-worth, feelings and emotions were paramount in her life. What she considered her personal security and what she desired was also paramount. She had great interest in the unconscious, and indulged in a lot of hidden and secret affairs. Her life was defined by seclusion and escapism. She had a certain mysticism and hidden sensitivity, as well as an intense need for privacy.

planet dominants:

Saturn

Mercury

Neptune

She believed in the fact that lessons in life were sometimes harsh, and structure and foundation was a great issue in her life, and she had to be taught through experience what she needed in order to grow. She paid attention to limitations she had and had to learn the rules of the game in this physical reality. She tended to have a practical, prudent outlook. She also likely held rigid beliefs. She was intelligent, mentally quick, and had excellent verbal acuity. She dealt in terms of logic and reasoning. It was likely that she was left-brained. She was restless, craved movement, newness, and the bright hope of undiscovered terrains. She was of a contemplative nature, particularly receptive to ambiances, places, and people. She gladly cultivated the art of letting go, and allowed the natural unfolding of events to construct her world. She followed her inspirations, for better or for worse.

sign dominants:

Gemini

Pisces

Cancer

She ventured out to see what else was there and seized upon new ideas that will expand their communities. Her innate curiosity kept her on the move. She used her rational, intellectual mind to explore and understand her personal world. She needed to answer the single burning question in her mind: why? This applied to most facets of her life, from the personal to the impersonal. This need to know sent her off to foreign countries, where her need to explore other cultures and traditions ranked high. She was changeable and often moody. This meant that she was often at odds with herself—the mind demanding one thing, the heart demanding the opposite. To someone else, this internal conflict often manifested as two very different people. She needed to explore her world through her emotions. She felt things so deeply that quite often she became a kind of psychic sponge, absorbing the emotions of people around her. As such, she gravitated toward the arts, in general, to theater and film specifically. She could be ambivalent and indecisive simply because she was so impressionable. She also tended to be moody because she felt the very height of joy and the utter depths of despair. Love and romance were essential for her. These fulfilled him emotionally, and she generally flourished within stable relationships. At first meeting, she seemed enigmatic, elusive. She needed roots, a place or even a state of mind that he could call her own. She needed a safe harbor, a refuge in which to retreat for solitude. She was generally gentle and kind, unless he was hurt. Then she could become vindictive and sharp-spoken. She was affectionate, passionate, and even possessive at times. She was intuitive and was perhaps even psychic. Experience flowed through her emotionally. She was often moody and always changeable; her interests and social circles shifted constantly. She was emotion distilled into its purest form.

Doubtlessly the most famous Mexican movie star, María Félix created a larger-than-life character: herself. La Doña, as the star was known after the character of her 1943 movie Doña Bárbara, starred in 47 movies, most of them forgettable except for her presence in them. More a star than an actress, she constructed an image of a tough woman, a sort of one-liner she-male that went beyond the traditional role of Latin American women. Her marriage to Agustín Lara the most popular Latin composer from the 30s to the 60s, was a great event itself. Her fame went beyond Mexico to Latin America, Spain, France and Italy. She always refused to learn English, so she never acted in any English language movie. That's the main reason why her fame was related almost exclusively to Latin countries. After her last film, she was linked to a number of film projects, but never came back to the screen. Her last performance was on a Mexican historic soap opera, in 1970. (x)

Son los hombres en gran medida los que se han matado en las guerras y han volteado al país de cabeza en la política. María era plenamente consciente del papel relevante que juegan las mujeres dentro de cualquier sociedad y de cómo estas debían tener poder en la toma de decisiones en mayor medida. ### 25. El peor de los males que nos hace perdedoras es el machismo. El machismo es algo que ha estado presente en casi todas las sociedades desde tiempo inmemoriales y que debe ser erradicado. ### 26. Los mexicanos aprendemos del fracaso. Los mexicanos como todas las sociedades aprenden por el método de error o acierto, al final resuelven sus propios problemas. ### 27.

María sufrió en varias ocasiones comentarios tan desafortunados como este, pues había hombres que no entendían un carácter tan fuerte como el de ella y se sentían intimidados. ### 31. No te sientas mal si alguien te rechaza, la gente normalmente rechaza lo costoso porque no puede pagarlo. Una frase muy inspiradora que nos anima a valorarnos, y que tiene una forma de ver la vida típica de María Félix. ### 32. Vale más dar envidia que piedad. Esta gran actriz fue muy envidiada en toda su carrera, pero ella siempre supo sobreponerse a los problemas que los envidiosos le podían causar. ### 33. No es difícil ser bonita, ¡lo difícil es saber serlo! Ser una mujer bonita no es cuestión solo del físico, sino también de la actitud que debes adoptar. ### 34. Una mujer original no es aquella que no imita a nadie, sino aquella a la que nadie puede imitar. Ser alguien único es algo que es muy difícil dentro de esta sociedad, pero María Félix supo sin duda serlo. ### 35.

Ellos sí por mí; pero yo por ellos no […] Yo nunca he llorado por un hombre porque en el momento en que no me quiere él, ya no lo quiero yo” El mundo es muy grande y siempre podemos encontrar a otra persona para empezar una nueva relación, María Félix lo sabía muy bien. ### 39. A un hombre hay que llorarle tres días… Y al cuarto, te pones tacones y ropa nueva. Una forma al más puro estilo María Félix de superar una relación amorosa. ¡Siempre con actitud! ### 40. Si todos los hombres fueran tan feos como usted, claro que sería lesbiana, respondió a un reportero en Argentina que cuestionó sus preferencias sexuales. En esta cita, María Félix también tuvo que parar a un reportero que insinuó cuáles podían ser sus preferencias sexuales e incluso llegó a tildarlo de feo. ### 41. (Represento) a la mexicana triunfadora que no se deja. Yo no soy una dejada. Nunca lo fui. María siempre se vio a sí misma como una mujer triunfadora, luchadora y empoderada. ### 42. Hay algunos (hombres) que no me convenían, unos por feos, otros porque estaban muy pobres y a mí no me gusta andar pidiendo medias. Ella siempre supo muy bien qué buscaba en un hombre y nunca se lo ocultó a nadie. ### 43. Alguna vez un periodista me preguntó con muy mala leche: A usted le gusta mucho hablar de sí misma, ¿verdad?, y le contesté: Yo prefiero hablar bien de mí a hablar mal de los demás.

Duran un día y hay que agradecerlas toda la vida. Las flores son un obsequio que ella veía como banal y carente de sentido, pues estas no perduran en el tiempo. ### 50. No le tengo miedo ni a las canas ni a las arrugas, sino a la falta de interés por la vida. No le tengo miedo a que me caigan encima los años, sino a caerme yo misma. Perder la ilusión por vivir es aquello que nos vuelve viejos de verdad, mientras tengamos ambiciones y ganas de descubrir cosas nuestra mente permanecerá joven. ### 51.

Una cita que nos habla sobre la infidelidad y de cómo puede ser una cosa de ambos dentro de una pareja. ### 52.

María sabía rodearse muy bien de aquellas personas que realmente le aportasen algo positivo en su vida. ### 53. No me des consejos, yo puedo cometer errores sola. Aprendemos de nuestros errores y ella lo sabía, así que no necesitaba los consejos de nadie mas que no fueran sus propios errores. ### 54.

Estoy hasta arriba de la cabeza de los pendejos y, sobre todo, de los que nos quieren seguir viendo la cara. Y como algunos hombres no se ponen los pantalones, nosotras hoy nos los vamos a poner. Una frase que describe muy bien el carácter fuerte y decidido de esta celebridad del cine mexicano de los años 40 y 50. ### 61. La gente sin ambición, no sale nunca del agujero. La ambición llevó a María Félix a ser la mujer icónica que todos conocemos, la misma que alcanzó lo más alto del firmamento cinematográfico mexicano. ### 62.

Otra de las grandes frases de María Félix. ### 63. Yo no la conozco, mi trabajo no tenía rivales. No sé, a mí me ha ido siempre tan bien en todo. Yo creo que nunca tuve competencia real. Había gente que le quieren atribuir ciertas rivales dentro de su época como actriz, pero ella siempre las vio como meras compañeras que realizaban su propio trabajo. ### 64. Había un Zapata, el mismo Pancho Villa, aventurero, era un hombre, le veías tamaños al tipo. Ya no hay hombres como los de antes; es un producto que se ha perdido, la calidad está perdida. Fíjate hasta en el físico de los nuevos hombres y verás que no tienen esas envergaduras. María añoraba tiempos atrás cuando los hombres estaban hechos de una pasta diferente a sus contemporáneos. ### 65. La mejor manera de amar a alguien es aceptarlo tal como es, eso es lo que yo hago con Antoine, no es fácil, pero sólo amar a los pendejos es fácil. El amor de verdad puede ser complicado de encontrar, e incluso nos puede ser difícil de sostener en el tiempo, pero si lo encontramos debemos luchar por él. ### 66. Yo no tengo sinsabores. Muchas mujeres que yo conozco se ponen tristes porque ya no tienen los 20, los 25 años. A mí no me importa. Yo tengo la edad que tengo. María siempre fue feliz con cualquier edad que vivió, lo importante es cómo vivimos cada año, no cuántos años vivimos. ### 67. En la vida yo considero que el éxito es inferior a la celebridad. El éxito puede ser alcanzado por mucha gente, la celebridad te toca y está contigo durante toda la vida. Cuando alcanzas el estatus de celebridad, este permanecerá contigo toda la vida. ### 68. Dejen a los muertos en paz, si los que están adentro no pueden salir y los que estamos afuera no queremos entrar. Debemos ser respetuosos con nuestros difuntos y dejarles descansar en paz, a todos nos llegará el momento. ### 69. El perfume del incesto no lo tiene otro amor. Recientes estudios sugieren que el primer amor de María fue su hermano dos años mayor que ella, sin duda algo que ha levantado mucha controversia al respecto. ### 70. Investigarme ni me digas la palabra, el otro día un periodista desde su gran prestigio me dijo: "quisiera hacerte una biografía" y me pareció bien; tantas biografías chafas me han hecho y tantas que no he permitido y bien tuvimos citas, tuvimos grabaciones, tuvimos visitas, nos encuatachamos en esta historia de la biografía para que a un momento dado esta persona me diga "ya no puedo hacer tu biografía por que ya fui tu amiga ya me siento tu amiga ya no te quiero investigar" y la palabra me llenó: por qué me vas a investigar si yo no soy Porfirio Díaz o Emiliano Zapata por qué me vas a investigar a esos se les investiga, a una actriz se le inventa, una actriz es sueño. Una gran cita que habla muy bien de la humildad de María Félix, la que sin duda fue una mujer de carácter fuerte pero que siempre fue honesta consigo misma y por eso es querida por miles de personas de todo el mundo.
