MINI BIO:
Dark, moustachioed and hawkishly handsome, Rodolfo Acosta was mostly confined to playing sneering bandits in huge sombreros. He was a little cold, perhaps, for bonafide leading roles, although he was top-billed once, in The Tijuana Story, a minor 'meller'. Then it was back to a whole posse of westerns before his early death. He was sometimes billed as Rudy or Rudolfo.
