Career

Duval made her film debut in the musical Melodías inolvidables (1959), an experience she later described as "a great emotion" and her "favorite memory" of her entire career.[3] She once said that musical was her favorite film genre.[4] She played the romantic interests of Gaspar Henaine "Capulina" in Barridos y regados (1963) and Marco Antonio Campos "Viruta" in Cada quién su lucha and La cigüeña distraída (both 1966).[citation needed]

She acted as Antonio Aguilar's beloved in two films: the Mexican Revolution drama Juan Colorado (1966), where she played the tragic Silvia Guerrero, and the comedy Los alegres Aguilares (1967).[3] She finished her film career in the 1970s with the Blue Demon vehicle La mafia amarilla (1975). She also participated in television productions such as La voz de la tierra (1982) with Joaquín Cordero, Sergio Kleiner, Ana Bertha Lepe, Delia Magaña, and Teresa Velázquez. Her last appearance was in the telenovela María José (1995).[citation needed]

For her contributions to the motion picture and recording industries, Duval's handprints were embedded into the Paseo de las Luminarias in 1984. Those handprints would be joined by those of her niece, Consuelo, forty years later
