Andrés García

Actor · Died April 4, 2023, aged 81 · Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic

Andrés García was born on May 24, 1941, in the Dominican Republic before his family emigrated to Mexico and settled in Acapulco. While working on a boat in Acapulco, the actor was discovered by film producers, who invited him to participate in the film "Chanoc" when he was 25 years old. His gallantry made an impact in the show business of the 1960s. The actor had three children, Leonardo García and Andrés García, the result of his marriage to the American Sandra Vale; and Andrea García, whom he had with the actress María Fernanda Ampudia. He also was married to the actress Sonia Infante, from whom he divorced a few years after their marriage. His last marriage was to Margarita Portillo. In cinema, the actor stood out in more than 50 films, including "Pedro Navajas," "La Última Noche," "Toña Machetes," "Tintorera," "Hermelinda Linda," "El día de los Asesinos," "Carlos el Terrorista” and “Nora la Rebelde,” among many others. On television, García worked on telenovelas such as "El Privilegio de Amar," "Mujeres Engañadas," "Con Toda el Alma" and "El Cuerpo del Deseo."

Percentiles are each film's standing among all films on MovieCove; the typical film is the median, so one outlier cannot drag it. Percentiles and reviewer scores count the films IMDb credits them on, for now; the Midcredits score bands, the shape of the crowd and the two cards count their MovieCove titles, shows included (a show ranked among shows), appearances as themselves left out. A descriptor is the shape of a title's IMDb rating distribution against the catalog; "most divisive" needs a spread wider than half of all titles, and a card names only a principal credit: a craft role, and on a show a crew role or a run of episodes, never a courtesy credit or a one-off guest spot.
