Actress of great interpretive versatility. Capable of embodying women of all kinds, she has succeeded both in very Spanish-style comedies and in high-tension dramatic films.

Regarding his talent, it is clear that something has to do with his last name. He belongs to the Ozores clan, a well-known family in Spanish cinema. Specifically, she is the daughter of José Luis Ozores , a legendary actor fromWe thieves are honest people orEl tigre de Chamberí , among many other endearing films from post-war Spain. And she is the niece of Antonio Ozores – a secondary shocker characterized by that abrupt and crazy speech that she could not understand anything – and the director and actor Mariano Ozores (Two Magazine Girls ). She is also a cousin of Emma Ozores , perhaps the least known artist in the family.

Adriana Ozores was born in Madrid on May 21, 1959. At the age of nine her father died and when she turned twenty she began her first steps as an actress thanks to her uncle Mariano. She worked with him in medium-length films, with simple and green plots, with actors like Fernando Esteso and Andrés Pajares . They are from that early period.The energetic ones ,The pimps orChristopher Columbus, ex officio… discoverer , where he also coincided with his uncle Antonio. In 1984 he made a leap in quality withLos stilts , by Carlos Saura , although Adriana only had a small role. She then became interested in television series, where she participated, among others, inOffice shift (1986). Although from the beginning he combined cinema with theater, it was around this time that he began to stand out more on stage, with important works for “Bajarse al Moro” and especially for classics such as “La celestina”, “El mayor de Zalamea” or “The shameful in the palace.” At the end of the 90’s he would make a strong return to the cinema, but he would never completely leave the world of theater.

In this second stage of her career, Adriana is a much more mature actress when it comes to choosing her roles on the big screen. So in 1998 she stands out inLa hora de los valientes , by Antonio Mercero , one of the few films about the Spanish Civil War that is neither tendentious nor Manichaean. For her work, Adriana won the Goya Award and the Medal of the Círculo de Escritores Cinematográficos for best supporting actress. The comedies by Miguel Albaladejo are also from that period. The first night of my life andManolito Gafotas . But that same year of 1999, the actress tried her luck with her most dramatic facet in the thrillerPlenilunio , in the most carefreeAsk the king for an account , with Antonio Resines , and inWhen you come back to my side , his first collaboration with the director Gracia Querejeta. She also participated in thirteen episodes of the seriesJournalists .

Already in the new millennium, Adriana Ozores has shown that she is one of the most convincing actresses on the national scene. She, especially, internalizes distressing situations or daily worries that sadden her spirits like no one else. She more than proved it in the remarkable dramas inIn the city without limits (2002),Nobody’s Life (2002) orSleeping Luck (2003). In 2004 he met Gracia Querejeta again on her way and shot with her what is surely her best film to date,Hector . And the following year he kept the role of serious roles with the originalThe method , where she was an applicant for a job, and withHeroin , where she played a courageous mother who suffers from her son’s drug addiction. In addition, she began to play the character of Lola in the hit seriesPaco’s men . The last thing he has done isBorn to suffer , a female drama that has been her third collaboration with Miguel Albaladejo.
