===Last films=== Félix returned to Mexico in 1955. This period of her career was characterized by performing in period pieces inspired by the [[Mexican Revolution]]. This cycle begins with ''La Escondida'' (1955). In this film, as well as in stories like ''Canasta de cuentos mexicanos'' (1955) and ''Café Colón'' (1958), she worked again with Pedro Armendáriz. In 1956 she starred in ''[[Tizoc (film)|Tizoc]]'' with the actor and singer [[Pedro Infante]]. However, the film was not liked by the actress, despite her international success. Eventually she filmed ''[[Beyond All Limits]]'' (1957) with [[Jack Palance]], and the melodramas ''[[Ash Wednesday (1958 film)|Ash Wednesday]]'' and ''[[The Empty Star]]'' (both 1958). In 1959 she played the title role in ''[[The Soldiers of Pancho Villa]]'' with top billing lead [[Dolores del Río]]. <!--, where alternating with [[Dolores del Río]], another celebrated Mexican film star with a career in Hollywood ←This bit doesn't make sense. What is meant?--> In 1959 she performed in the Spanish-Mexican co-production ''[[Sonatas (film)|Sonatas]]'' directed by [[Juan Antonio Bardem]] and the French-Mexican co-production ''[[La Fièvre Monte à El Pao]]'', directed by [[Luis Buñuel]]. In the 1960s Félix's presence in the cinema was limited to only a few films. The most prominent were ''Juana Gallo'' (1960), ''[[La bandida]]'' (1963), ''[[Amor y sexo]]'' (''Sapho '63'', 1963)), and ''[[La Valentina (1966 film)|La Valentina]]'' (1966). In 1970 she filmed ''La Generala'', which would be her last film. The Mexican historical [[telenovela]] ''La Constitución'' (1971) would be her last professional acting job. Félix attempted to return to the cinema twice. First, in 1982, with the film ''Toña Machetes'', and again in 1986 with the film ''Insólito resplandor''. Neither project crystallized, and Félix never reappeared in film.{{citation needed|date=May 2018}}
