Movie review - "The Girl from Rio" (1969) **1/2

 Harry Alan Towers kind of sequel to Sumuru with Shirley Eaton again in that role although she has a slightly different name. It's like a lot of Towers/Franco films - it looks good, has a dreamlike state, is confusing, continuity is weird. Lots of nudity.

Eaton makes a splendid villain. Sanders is looking old and only a few years away from suicide but that has its own appeal now the years have gone on.

Someone called Richard Wyler is the hero, I guess, who is kidnapped by Eaton.
