Little Known Spaghetti Western Actors – Elena Barrios

These daily posts will cover little known actors or people that have appeared in more recent films and TV series. Various degrees of information that I was able to find will be given and anything that you can add would be appreciated.]

Elena Barrios is/was a Spanish actress born in Madrid, Spain in 1931.  She appeared in ten films between 1949 and 1963. I can find no biographical information on her other than a birthyear and a list of her films in Diccionario del cine Español. What happened to her is unknown.

Elena Barros appeared in one Spaghetti western, “Il segno di Zorro” (The Sign of Zorro) as Señora Martinez y Rayol in 1963.

I’ve watched the film in Spanish and German and although the Martinez name is mentioned I saw no one answering that name in the film and the there are only two women actually shown in individual scenes or closeups are the two main female stars of the picture Danielle de Metz as Manuela and Gaby André as Señora Gutiérrez. The other female actresses are seen in crowd scenes.
