: Ramón Elías in La Cenicienta y Ernesto (1957)

Ramón Elías was a character actor, mostly in small parts, active in Spanish films at least from the early 1940's to the early 1960's.

No biographical details are currently known.

Ramón looks to have been someone who was probably familiar to cinemagoers in the 1950's, but who has since slipped from the collective memory, with no profile on Wikipedia or Enciclopedia del Cine Español, despite his having appeared, and been mostly credited, in around 30 films.

His filmography is rather sparse in the 1940's, so it could be quite possible there are undocumented roles to be found. He wears thick glasses in many of his roles.

Intriga (1942) credited, as Gabriele

Doce lunas de miel (1944) credited on the publicity (rather unusually), as Harry (role to be confirmed).

I think that is probably him at bottom left in the first image.

Aventuras de Juan Lucas (1949) credited, as One of Juan Lucas' men

Paz (1949) IMDb lists him as appearing with no role. The only actor I could find that seemed like it might be him is the Military officer seated on the left in the first image, but it is not really clear enough to be certain.
