L'Homme de Rio (That Man From Rio) is a popular 1964 adventure film, directed by Philippe de Broca and starring Jean-Paul Belmondo and Françoise Dorléac (sister of Catherine Deneuve).

The film's plot was loosely based on the Tintin adventure The Broken Ear.^{[citation needed]}

It might have been the inspiration of some Indiana Jones movies. Nice location shooting shows Rio de Janeiro, Oscar Niemeyer's nascent Brasília and Paris of the time.
