I love that they went to Rio

No not Fletch and Mrs. Stanwyk...although I'm sure they had a good time. I am referring to how a substantial part of the film crew and the two lead actors decided they had to fly all the way to Rio to do two shots of the actors walking on the beach. When they charged that trip to Universal it must have felt better than charging a steak sandwich to Underhill.

yeah, but it looked like it was their "winter" - it is not hot year round in Rio

I loved the fact that they apparently scored Copacabana beach with zero people on it. Yes it's likely to be winter time, but Rio is still sub-tropical.🐭

They talk all about it in this movie featurette, I linked it with the time stamp for you. It rained the whole time they were there!
