}}{{Portal|Biography}}

Rafael Félix Rivelles Guillén (23 December 1898 — 3 December 1971) was a Spanish actor born in El Cabañal (El Cabanyal), a small town in the province of Valencia, Spain. Son of play actor José Rivelles and play actress Amparo Guillén, he was the father of famous Spanish star Amparo Rivelles. In the 1930s, with the advent of talking films, he went to Hollywood to make Spanish-language versions of American films, but eventually came back to Spain.

Rivelles had two especially notable roles - the title role in Don Quijote de la Mancha, and the Prior in Marcelino pan y vino (1955). He died in Madrid on 3 December 1971 and was interred at the El Cabanyal Cemetery in Valencia along with his father.[http://hemeroteca.abc.es/nav/Navigate.exe/hemeroteca/madrid/abc/1971/12/05/019.html Rafael Rivelles.
