===Roles declined in Hollywood===
Almost from the beginning of her career, Félix received job offers in Hollywood, but Félix herself said: ''They only give me huehuenche (Indian) roles''. While she was in France, Hollywood offered her the female role of ''[[Duel in the Sun (film)|Duel in the Sun]]'', but she passed and the part went to [[Jennifer Jones]].{{sfn|Félix|1993|loc=Vol. 3, p. 48}} Another proposal was ''[[The Barefoot Contessa]]'' with [[Humphrey Bogart]], but she refused it, instead making ''La Belle Otero'' in France. [[Ava Gardner]] ended up with the part. Later, the director [[Robert Aldrich]] sent her the script of ''[[The Legend of Lylah Clare]]'', but she did not reach an agreement with the director and [[Kim Novak]] got the role.{{citation needed|date=May 2018}}
