Armando Soto La Marina (1909–1983) was a Mexican film actor.[1] 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.[2]
