Title: He Builds A Swan And Flies out of a football stadium on it. Post by: 12InRuin on May 22, 2009, 08:57:34 PM I Was hoping to find the name of this movie. It seems to be based in the 70-80 period. the lead actor is a young male and he is chasing a girl who seems to be loving other people. He Builds a swan like plane on a bike and then rides/flies away on it out of a football stadium. It looked like a cult classic and it is older probably 70's. AAny help would be great thanks!

The football stadium he flies out of is the Houston Astrodome, if I remember correctly. Title: Re: He Builds A Swan And Flies out of a football stadium on it.

The movie is called Brewster McCloud. I think its an off-beat Robert Altman flick.
