“We lived, we suffered, we laughed,” Ms. Sevilla said in 2002, looking back on the rural life she built for herself with Patuel. If it was a departure from her show-business career, it was also, she said, “something that was paradise for us.”
Ms. Sevilla was a glamorous queen of 1950s and ’60s Spanish film, drawing comparisons to actress Ava Gardner with her sculptured features, flowing dark hair and high-arching eyebrows.
Accompanying Ms. Sevilla to a film set near Madrid, he asked a local to explain the actress’s popularity. “In Spain,” he was told, “to be glamorous is to be without scandal. Carmen is untouched by scandal. She is also of the people. She is the perfect woman.”Many of her films, at least, were far from perfect. “Don Juan” , a period comedy in which she appeared opposite the French comedian Fernandel, was dismissed as bland and uninspired.
Ms. Sevilla reinvented herself once more in the early 1990s, becoming an affable staple of Spanish television. She presented shows for three major broadcasters, at times helping to ring in the New Year on-air, and continued to appear regularly until her retirement in 2010 at age 80, the year after she was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s.
