As a regular cinema goer in the 40s and 50s, I remember Ricardo as a fine actor.
Sadly, he suffered a back injury during filming in 1951, but it didn’t stop him from working until the early 90s.

RIP, Rikky.

The majority of posters here are probably young so they would only associate him with Fantasy Island
