Charly Bravo
was born Ramón Carlos Mirón-Muñoz Bravo in Casablanca, Morocco on March 6,
1943. Bravo has appeared in over 200 films
including over 20 Euro-westerns and in numerous TV series, from ‘Mediterráneo’
to ‘Hospital central’. He is best remembered for appearances in known for “The
Cannibal Man” (1973), “The Boldest Job in the West” (1972) and “En la ciudad
sin límites” (2002).
But today he
complains that the profession has closed its doors to Bohemians like him. He is
still always aware of the latest casting calls. "I still have not learned
how to adjust my curriculum to the computer?
It took him two demanding years, to learn from his teenaged
grandchildren. Each time their
grandfather appears on TV, they hold a meeting to discuss his performance.
Have he failed
as an actor? "No, rented living does not mean that I am a broken toy"
Bravo answers, and he starts to look back at his career, “Conan the Barbarian”,
opposite Arnold Schwarzenegger; the work of “Zorba the Greek” in the theater
with Fabio Testi ... "When I leave to tour I sleep in luxury hotels, but I
cannot fall asleep with on my modest pension." The hostel is behind the Gran Via, 100 meters
from his home. "Living with my wife and two daughters was not good, so I
took off. I'm a loner and somewhat
selfish, but loneliness does not frighten me." However, he recognizes that living in the Hostal
Estrella, de MadridStar gives him "tranquility."
His modesty
prevents him from showing off his small room, "I bump into walls"
which contains his wardrobe and washbasin with a mirror and decorated with 200
religious items. "When I get angry I shout out the window." The three
room suite costs him 500 euros a month, although he says he would charge half. To
afford it, I play guitar on the Metro. "Always practicing on the street to
avoid disturbing the other tenants" he says. With the parents of the current owner, the
deal was closer, "I brought Zamora chorizo", although he has never
ceased to celebrate Christmas Eve with his second family.
Still
semi-active today his last appearance was on the TV series ‘La fuga’ in 2012.
