Beautiful María Montez II at the cover of Spanish magazine Bocaccio 70.

María Montez pictured in Ibiza in August 1970 by Xavier Miserachs

María Montez II has just finished filming "Valdez is Coming" and she flew from Madrid to Ibiza to make a photoshot with Catalan photographer Xavier Miserachs for Bocaccio 70 magazine.

In Ibiza they (along with other models and actresses) visited Salinas, Portinatx, San Rafael inlets and Martinet pool.

These photos were published in Bocaccio 70 number 3, September 1970. Last photo is posted so you can see she was featured in a three pages poster.

Sea baptism for the "Escala en Hi-Fi" albums

The cast of this popular show chose the Mediterranean Sea over sparkling champagne to celebrate the release of their new album, in which they sing in their own voices for the first time. Here's how they celebrated this new release in the water.

Tele-Ritmo, 1966

María II can be seen wearing a white bikini.

[daniellesdarrieux]

reviewing my flagged posts and tumblr censored a 1944 movie with Maria Montez, like???? 1944??? she is in a bathing suit?? it’s the f*cking 40s???? I appealed it but it’s still flagged, I guess because you see her in a pinkish bathing suit???? WHAT THE EEEFFFF???

you’re telling me censors in 1944 were okay with this but not tumblr?? HOW??

[tina-aumont]

I have some flagged photos of Tina taken in 1968 wearing a white bikini, she's sitting on a tree and next to a swimming pool, really??? And some of Teresita's modelling pics too...

There was more freedom in the 40s, 50s and 60s than nowadays, this is ridiculous!!!

I appealed the decision like... a couple of months ago? and they are still thinking???

Maria and Consuelo, 1946

FAMILY CINEMA

The Aumonts are well-off. [...] They were supposed to be filming a movie about the life of Elizabeth of Austria in November, but the project didn't seem commercial enough in Hollywood. […] Jean-Pierre and Maria started looking for a script. But a script isn't easy to find when you need a female role with a Spanish accent and a male role with a French accent, with sex appeal and yet emotion. And above all, Technicolor. The white marble, however, was found.

The story takes place in New Orleans at the beginning of the 18th century. Jean-Pierre is a frigate captain and Maria is a Spanish dancer.

By the way, Consuelo, the sister —one of Maria's sisters— is making her screen debut. Her stage name is Julie André. Her first film not only landed her a contract but also a husband. She just got engaged to Kenny Carter, one of the advertising executives at her firm. Jean-Pierre just spent a month on the East Coast: New York, Westport, etc. … Triumphant success in "Design for Living" (Serenade for Three). He's been offered a winter run on Broadway.

Cinévie, 20th August 1946

Maria Montez's success probably kept her sister Consuelo up at night. Like her, she wanted to be in the movies. Consuelo made her studio debut alongside Maria in the Universal-International film, "The Pirates of Monterey."

Maria and Consuelo are very similar, though naturally Maria has much more experience than Consuelo. She guided her sister's first steps with a warm, smiling smile, showing her stage presence, how to dress, and even going so far as to demonstrate how to best present her legs in front of the camera. And naturally, Consuelo Montez, like Maria, has the most beautiful legs in the world. So let's eagerly await the arrival of this new rising star.

[Caption]: Maria Montez gives her sister Consuelo instructions on how to use her legs.

MARIA MONTEZ GIVES FAMILY SEX-APPEAL LESSONS

Brunette Consuelo Gracia is about to make her screen debut in a film titled "The Pirates of Monterey." Sex appeal runs in the family for Consuelo, as she is the sister of Maria Montez, wife of Jean-Pierre Aumont. Maria generously shares her experience with her sister regarding the art of showing off legs that are worth the effort. This photo suggests that Consuelo will be a good student. Good for her, for Maria Montez, and for Jean-Pierre Aumont, who is certainly pleased to have "settled" his charming sister-in-law. He only has half a dozen more to place!

Cinévogue, 14th November 1947.

In these articles, Consuelo Gracia's name & surnames are often misspelled, so you can find her name as Consuela and her surname as Garcia...
