Career

Fiorella Faltoyano took dramatic studies, and in 1967 debuted in Nati Mistral's theater company. Almost at the same time she appeared in the Pedro Mario Herrero [es] film Club de solteros. She attained popularity as an actress on the television programs Hora once [es], Teatro de siempre [es], Estudio 1, and Novela [es], and as presenter of the show ¡Señoras y señores! [es], in the version created by José María Quero [es] in 1974–75.

In 1977 she achieved her greatest film success as a protagonist of Unfinished Business by José Luis Garci, with whom she continued working in Solos en la madrugada (1978) – again with José Sacristán[1] – and in Cradle Song (1994). She shot other films, among them La colmena (1982) and Después del sueño (1992) by Mario Camus, ¡Biba la banda! (Ricardo Palacios, 1987), La sombra del ciprés es alargada (Luis Alcoriza, 1990), and La sal de la vida (Eugenio Martín, 1996).

At the same time she strengthened her television career, participating in La máscara negra [es] (1982), Tango [es] (1991), La Regenta [es] (1995), Hermanos de leche [es] (1994–95), Cuéntame cómo pasó (2003–04), Obsesión [es] (2005), Hospital Central (2006), Alfonso, el príncipe maldito [es] (2010), and Amar en tiempos revueltos (2011).

In the theater she starred in The Odd Couple (2001–02), The Children's Hour (2004–07), Agnes of God (2007–09), and Galdosiana (2009–10), plays in which she shared billing and production work with the actress Cristina Higueras [es] through her company Nueva Comedia.
