one scene of note involves the heist crew walking down copacabana beach and there are of course numerous scenes showing expensive, shiny cars in all their glory.

james bond is one of the most iconic characters in cinema history - it is thus no surprise that much of the bond film, moonraker (1979), is set in one of the world's most iconic locations - rio de janeiro.

atmospheric and bustling shots of the rio carnival's frantic crowd feature in many of the film's scenes but perhaps the action passages involving bond battling it out with metal-mouthed jaws, atop a pair of cable cars (known locally as bondinho), suspended above rio's guanabara bay between pão de açúcar and morro da urca, are the most memorable.

bond's journey in the cable car is suddenly halted when jaws stops the engine before chewing through the cable with his metallic teeth.
