Plots(1)
Look, up in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plane! It's...Brewster McCloud? Robert Altman's kooky cult comedy focuses on a shy, nerdy young man who lives inside the Houston Astrodome where he plans to realize his dreams of flight via a set of homemade wings. But why are so many people Brewster comes in contact with turning up dead? And why are they covered in bird droppings? (official distributor synopsis)
