	LUPE VELEZ
		Lupe Velez was born Maria Guadalupe de Villalobos July 18, 1908, in the tiny Mexican town of San Luis de Potosi.
		Mama Velez, a prostitute who Lupe later claimed was once a diva with the Mexico City Opera, sometimes sold her daughter for the evening to the highest bidder, often for thousands of pesos.
		Lupe became a star seemingly overnight, and was highly praised for her comedic and singing talents, athleticism, and beauty.

		Velez's tantrums were a particularly consistent part of this publicity, an aspect of her persona that brought together all the features of her immigrant identity that fed American fears of racial and cultural pollution: loudness, irrationality, rampant desire, the potential for violence, and infantile failures of self-control.
		Lupe Velez, in her dramas, was a sort of tourist attraction for the newly mobile middle class of the 1920s and 1930s, often visited and appreciated by a white traveler from the United States or Europe but locked in her own cultural milieu.
		Velez made some appealing and successful comedies but was never successful enough to convince any studio to offer her a long-term deal, and gradually her popularity faded until 1939, when she began working in the Mexican Spitfire series of "B" movies for RKO that would last until her death in 1944.

		Armed with a pistol, the requisite sword and exotic Argentine bolas (which he hurls with remarkable skill, disabling his foes and, in one delightful scene, entwining himself with Lupe Velez for an especially intimate tango), Fairbanks shines as the reckless titular ne'er do-well.
		No longer the admirable representative of healthy virtue, Fairbanks's character is a heavy drinker, falls prey to a deadly plague known as the Black Doom and carries on a carnal courtship with the tempestuous Velez.
		Even the religious conversion experienced by the protagonist near the film's climax implies a life previously devoted to iniquity that ran counter to the virtuous image Fairbanks cultivated throughout his career.
