The changes I made on Sept 17th 2006 were basically to correct a very literal translation of fact and movie titles into a more colloquially correct form. Then I did some additional research on some of the facts I remembered, and added them, along with a link to Rita Lynn Wilson's page on Jorge Negrete.

[edit] Compared to Pedro Infante

Negrete, according to the press of his time, was much more famous than Infante, in fact Jorge Negrete signed with RCA records and Pedro Infante only recorded for a small brand, which later would make him more famous than he actually was at his time and transform him in to a legend, Peerless Records became the owner of Infantes rights and royalties because Pedro died with out a testament.--Piramide 15:34, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

Negrete is still more famous and succesfull in other hispanic countries like Spain, Argentina, Cuba, Chile, Uruguay, Peru, Puerto Rico, than Pedro Infante.
