@forgottenlatinohistory: Before Charlton Heston, there was Ramón Novarro — a Mexican-born superstar who carried one of the biggest films ever made. He escaped the Mexican Revolution, rose through Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, and became one of the highest-paid actors of his time. He starred in Ben-Hur: A Tale of the Christ decades before the version most people remember. His name should be everywhere. It isn’t. ⸻ Image Attributions: Headshot of Ramón Novarro — Public domain, via Wikimedia Commons.
