Bernardo Roca Rey

Bernardo Roca Rey, brother of the stage director Ricardo Roca Rey, was an actor from school onwards, then an amateur bullfighter at the Acho ring, and was among the founders of an association of amateur actors, the very one that produced his film. He learned cinema in Hollywood, at the Churubusco studios in Mexico City and at the Institut des hautes études cinématographiques in Paris. A playwright, he twice received the national theatre prize, in 1949 and in 1957, and adapted Ricardo Palma for radio. A career diplomat, he was cultural secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and reached the rank of ambassador.
