Gómez Ferrer, Pilar

[PeplumParadise]

Pilar Gómez Ferrer in Buenos días, condesita (1967)

Pilar Gómez Ferrer was a character actress, mostly in small parts, active in Spanish films from the early 1950's to the late 1970's.

She was born Pilar Gómez Gómez on February 7th 1910 in Toledo, Spain. She was the daughter of actors Francisco Gómez Ferrer and Adelina Gómez Uzal.

In 1932 she married the actor and theatrical agent Francisco Luna Baños. They would remain married until his death in 1985 and had one daughter, the actress Delia Luna.

Pilar began her career as a cinema actress in 1952, at the age of 42. Over the next 25 years she would appear in around 140 films. Spanish cinema had an abundance of perennially-middle-aged actresses, of which Pilar was a typical example, who would play the supporting roles of mothers, wives, neighbours, landladies and town gossips, there to cast a disapproving eye over the behaviour of the younger generation. After a very prolific career, Pilar retired from the screen in 1977.

Pilar died in Madrid on September 27th 2009, at the age of 99.

Pilar's career seems to be fairly well documented as she was usually credited, but I have found the odd undocumented role, so there may be a few more.
