Seen across enough titles, Francisco Rabal turns into a familiar face with the unglamorous consistency that long careers are made of. The career has been split between cinema and television rather than settled in either. The film 'Belle de Jour' accounts for more of the public profile than anything else does. Another entry worth naming is 'Tie Me Up! Tie Me Down!'. He has worked in drama more often than in any other register.

Francisco Rabal Valera (8 March 1926 – 29 August 2001), popularly known as Paco Rabal, was a Spanish actor. His career spanned more than 200 film and television roles, between 1942 and 2001. He received numerous accolades both in Spain and abroad, including the Cannes Film Festival's Best Actor Award and the Goya Award for Best Actor.

Rabal was best known internationally for his collaborations with director Luis Buñuel, with Ronald Bergan writing "most of his other major roles he carried the heady, perverse whiff of the great surrealist director with him." He worked with many other notable directors, including Carlos Saura, Pedro Almodóvar, William Friedkin, Michelangelo Antonioni, Claude Chabrol, Luchino Visconti, and Gillo Pontecorvo.

One of Spain's most-loved and acclaimed actors during his lifetime, he also was known for his commitment to human rights and other social causes.Francisco Rabal, licensed under CC-BY-SA, full list of contributors on Wikipedia.
