She played the maid in Goonies and in an ep of Charlie's Angels.  She was most recently in an episode of the new USA series Common Law.  I liked the character she played in Real Women Have Curves.

RIP Lupe

By her tally, she had played a maid more than 150 times in film, television, and theater.

She had a smallish part (NOT as a maid) in "Mi Familia/My family", and she cracked me up.  A very underrated actress who will be missed.

As Hattie McDaniel said "I'd rather make $700 a week playing a maid than earn $7 a day being a maid,"


And Louise Beavers, who started as a maid before playing one in films, said "I would much rather play a maid than be one."
