Character from The Dollars Trilogy by Sergio Leone / United Artists
A woman held captive by Ramon Rojo in San Miguel — the only civilian the Man with No Name goes out of his way to protect, which says something about both of them.
Marisol is the human anchor of A Fistful of Dollars — the character whose presence forces the stranger to have a reason beyond money. He frees her before he has completely played out his scheme, at personal cost, which is the one thing he does in the film that isn't purely strategic. She is a mother, separated from her husband and child by Ramon's claim on her. The stranger gives her money and reunites her with her family in one of the film's few moments of genuine warmth — a warmth he then immediately abandons, because warmth is something he can't afford to carry.
A Mexican woman with the worn look of someone who has been surviving difficult circumstances for long enough that survival has become the whole of her attention. Dark hair, eyes that are watchful. Whatever she was before becomes visible again when she understands she's being helped.
