García, Tito

[PeplumParadise]

Tito Garcia in Cuatro balazos (1964)

Tito García was a small-part actor, active in films and television shot in Spain and Europe from the start of the 1960's until his death some 43 years later.

He was born Pablo García González on August 17th 1931, in Salamanca, Spain.

He worked as a bullfighter in his teens and twenties, living in Gijón. After moving to Madrid, he made his film debut in 1960 and soon made acting his full-time career. He was quite prolific in mostly small roles in the 60's and 70's, particularly in the western genre. In the 80's and 90's his career slowed down somewhat, with him appearing mainly in guest spots in TV series.

Tito died on May 6th 2003 in Madrid, at the age of 72.

His biography is gathered from various sources including obituraries and his profile on Enciclopedia del Cine Español.

I have found a couple of undocumented appearances, so there could always be more.

No Tito!

Titles where Tito is listed as appearing somewhere online, but cannot be found. There always has to be one!

• La grande notte di Ringo (1966) IMDb as Bandit. Not found by myself or Carlos

Pelusa (1960) credited, as Hercules.

Credited as "La presentacion de", indicating that this is probably his first film appearance, or at least the first credited role.

Bello recuerdo (1961) credited, as Father of the girl singer

[PeplumParadise]

Accidente 703 (1962) credited, as Pedro.

This is the role he is credited with playing on IMDb and I didn't find him anywhere else in the film, but I am not entirely certain that this is Tito (agreed by Dan), he seems rather different, so I am putting this as an uncertain identification.
