Armando Soto La Marina

Armando Soto La Marina (1 October, 1909–20 March, 1983) was a Mexican film actor. He appeared in a large number of productions from the Golden Age of Mexican Cinema onwards. He was considered a rising star in the 1940s but his erratic alcohol-fuelled behaviour led to him being relegated to smaller, supporting roles.
