THAT MAN FROM RIO<\/h2>\nTHAT MAN FROM RIO<\/h2>\n| 1964 \/ 2014 – 110′ –\u00a0\u00a0Classic – Digitally Restored 50th Anniversary – Adventures \/ Comedy – A blow dart-wielding thug snatches a rare statuette from the Mus\u00e9e de l\u2019Homme; anthropologist Jean Servais (Rififi) is kidnapped in broad Parisian daylight; serviceman Jean-Paul Belmondo begins his 8-day leave by changing to civvies in a M\u00e9tro entrance and witnesses fianc\u00e9e Fran\u00e7oise Dorl\u00e9ac (Catherine Deneuve\u2019s sister, killed in a car accident 3 years later) getting kidnapped herself \u2013 and then the chase begins: by motorcycle, shoe leather, flight to Rio de Janeiro sans ticket or passport, airport baggage carrier, cable car, pink car complete with green stars and a rumble seat, water skies, Amazon river boat, seaplane, jungle vine\u2026 all shot in breathtaking widescreen and color. Even as Dorl\u00e9ac, rescued, is kidnapped again, Belmondo performs his own blood-curdling stunts against that sugar loaf Rio skyline and across that under-construction unearthly architecture of Brasilia (even parachuting almost into the jaws of a hungry croc).<\/em><\/p>\n THAT MAN FROM RIO | 1964 \/ 2014 – 110′ –\u00a0\u00a0Classic – Digitally Restored 50th Anniversary – Adventures \/ Comedy – Co-Written by: Jean-Paul Rappeneau, Ariane Mnouchkine, Daniel Boulanger, Philippe de Broca.
