  Brave Pigeon (Spanish: Paloma brava) is a 1961 Mexican film directed by Rogelio A. González with Rosita Quintana, Miguel Aceves Mejía and Sara García.
  
  It was one of three ranchera comedies that year by González based on screenplays by Janet Alcoriza (formerly Raquel Rojas) and Fernando Galiana. The other two were El buena suerte, also with Aceves Mejía, and El jinete negro, a western parody with an early appearance by Mauricio Garcés.
