- Synopsis:
One of Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers' most career-defining movies for RKO Pictures, 'Flying Down To Rio' was released at the height of the Depression but was full of glitz and exotic locations. Although they were not the main stars of this film it will always be remembered for the first ever pairing of Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers, who would become the greatest dance team in movie history. Aviator and band leader Roger Bond (Gene Raymond) is forever getting his group fired for flirting with the lady guests. When he falls for Brazilian beauty Belinha de Rezende (Dolores Del Rio) it appears to be for real, even though she is already engaged. His Yankee Clippers band is hired to open the new Hotel Atlantico in Rio and when performing the airborne production number to mark the Hotel's opening, Julio gets some intriguing ideas... - Actors:
