VHS Movie Reviews of That Man From Rio
Movie Review: blessed movie
Summary: 4 Stars
Much has been written about Philippe de Broca's ? L'homme de Rio ?. That Herg?'s ? Tintin ? albums inspired the film. That, when Spielberg wanted to adapt ? Tintin ? to the big screen, it was because of ? L'Homme de Rio ? in mind ; that, when he created Indiana Jones instead, he was again inspired by ? L'Homme de Rio ?.
? L'Homme de Rio ? is a blessed movie : the perfect blend of adventure and comedy ; so much chemistry between the two lead actors that it works even when the script tears them apart, i.e. during most of the film ; great pacing, only surpassed by nearly miraculous sense of timing.
Movie was released on 1963, therefore probably shot in 1962. Brazil still was a land of wonders on the other side of the world. The sights of Copacabana and Corcovado were not worn out postcards. Rio was no poster-city for drugs, violence and ? favelas ?. Jean-Paul Belmondo could befriend a young boy without suspicions of pedophilia.
