Talk:Maria Montez

message: The article says Montez wrote three books, of which two were published. What is the source for this, and what were the books called? Google brings up nothing.   — Preceding unsigned comment added by 152.76.1.244 (talk) 03:54, 16 July 2019 (UTC)

message: Maria Montez was born in 1912 in Baharona, Dominican Republic, to a Spanish who was serving as consul. According to the Article Seven of the 1908 Constitution of the Dominican Republic, Dominicans were everyone born in the Dominican Republic, regardless the nationality of their parents, with the exception of the legitimate children of foreigners living in the Dominican Republic in diplomatic representation.
The article does not make clear if she was a natural child (born outside a marriage) or a legitimate child (born within a marriage), but if it is proved that her parents were married, then Montez was not a Dominican, but a Spaniard, since the Dominican Republic Constitution in force at the time would forbade her to receive the Dominican citizenship by birth. ★ Iñaki ★    (Talk page) ★  23:02, 24 July 2015 (UTC)

message: I bet the Free French Forces were made of volunteers. J.Gabin, an actor that's better known in France than Aumont and joined them a few weeks before him said:
"The idea of having to end my life in the USA made me sick. I could't stay with my hands in my pockets, keep on making grimaces in front of a camera - being well paid besides - and wait quietly that others get shot for me to find back my town".

message: The section on Early Life is all over the place,
She was one of ten children born to Ysidoro García, who worked as the Spanish consul in Dominican Republic, and his wife Teresa. Montez was educated at the Sacred Heart Convent in Santa Cruz de Tenerife. In the mid-1930s, her father was appointed to the Spanish consulship in Belfast, Northern Ireland where the family moved. It was there that Montez met her first husband, William G. McFeeters, whom she married at age 17.[1] In the book, "Maria Montez, Su Vida"[3] by Margarita Vicens de Morales, 2003 edition, on page 26, there is a copy of Maria Montez birth certificate proving that her original name was Maria Africa Gracia Vidal. Her father's name was Isidoro Gracia (not Garcia) and her mother's name was Teresa Vidal. On page 54, there is a copy of a fake biography made by Universal Pictures, where it says that Maria Montez was educated in Tenerife and that she lived in Ireland, which was never true. Maria Montez lived the first 27 years of her life in the Dominican Republic.
Plus when she's on Google the little side-box, taken no doubt from here, gives her nationality as Dominican and French  ---  apart from the section earlier, giving it as Spanish, she would also have been a British national by virtue of her marriage to an Ulsterman.
However, back to the quoted bit:  how could she live the first 27 years of her life in Dominican Republic, if a/ she was only born there to Spanish parents;  b/  educated in Tenerife in the Canaries, vide the 2nd sentence;  c/  married at 17 ( c1929 [ although it says also she first went there in the mid-1930s ] ) in Ulster.
The last sentence added on just contradicts the preceding sentences. Claverhouse (talk) 16:50, 3 March 2017 (UTC)
