- Brewster McCloud (1970) #WarnerArchive #WarnerBros #BrewsterMcCloud
Robert Altman followed up the smash hit M*A*S*H* with one of the most unusual - and decidedly non-commercial - films of his career. A fairy tale for the post-flower power era, Brewster McCloud enchants while dripping venom across its own escapist heart. Bud Cort’s Brewster sits at the heart of the fable, a young man who yearns to fly like a bird and lives in an fallout shelter inside the recently built Houston Astrodome. Sally Kellerman plays the fairy godmother figure who aids Brewster in his quest to construct his human-powered wings.
Directed By Robert Altman
Starring Bud Cort, Shelley Duvall, Sally Kellerman

I love the fact the cop is shown reading a Captain America comic. This movie works equally well now as a dig at the MCU.
Her smile before hit the gas is very happy. Almost like she's think: i'll have REAL FUN with this Road Runner
I worked at AstroWorld at the time. I was able to watch some of the chase and see the cars they used, cop car, Roadrunner, the Z-28 and the Gremlin. They used two Camaros, one split bumper and one full bumper. The Gremlin had an AMC 390 V8. Four Koni shocks one the back.
Shelly Duvall was beautiful when she slammed that accelerator and burned rubber. She even more of an excellent actress in the movie 'The Shinning' and as Olive Oil in the movie 'Popeye'. Rest in peace, ma'am 😢
I found Waldo.
LOL I WAS THINKING THE SAME THING LMAO
Yeah, if he and Harry Potter had a kid.
That's Harold you dumbshit.
Right?!
@@victortheewise lol excellent comment
i love shelley in this period the 70s
Shelley Duvall buckles her belt and Bud Cort has the classic "OH SHIT!" look on his face.
Yes, but he's too unaware or stupid to put on his seatbelt or ask why he should.
This scene is a tribute to the chase scene in “Bullitt”
Not much of a chase but my goodness, the gals and those cars ♥️
Saddest car chase ever, as i still remember what happened to Frank afterward. One of those weird little unexpected scenes that stayed with me for some reason.
Damn, I didn't realize how pretty Shelley Duvall was in her younger years. I'm so use to seeing her in The Shining. In that movie they didn't doll her up at all.
Agreed! She was still young when she filmed the Shining and Popeye ten years after this. She was only about 20 or so here. They purposely made her look frumpy and unattractive in the Shining for obvious reasons. And who’s going to look good dressed as Olive Oyl? It’s sad that she got the ugly stereotype, because she’s really not.
@@finster1968I thought she looked quite hot in The Shining. Not many women are without make up and Shelley was a natural beauty.
We found Waldo. He's with Shelley Duvall.
so, Wendy was cooler before meeting Jack Torrance! =P
Yeah, Wendy had a wild girl streak in her before Jack turned her into a sniveling, brow beat Hausfrau .
Also Harold before he met Maude
Oh yeah and beautiful
Really nice cars for sure, how about the beautiful white '69 SS/RS Camaro at 0:53 ?
I get the feeling this was kinda ripping off, taking from or spoofing Bullitt. The rift in that music, the way the guy in the Camaro was dressed. The way the chick in the Roadrunner looks in her rearview mirror, puts on gloves, buckles seatbelt. Yeah, was Bullitt inspired for sure.
Actually the Bullitt similarities were intentional. This movie was a comedy.
I also noticed one of the cars passing an Enco service station. In Bullitt, the two cars involved in the famous pursuit also pass an Enco station before the action begjns.
Is nobody gonna mention the .32 .34 & .36 a gallon gas prices?!? WOW!!
@@chrisrobinson3494 Ahhhh, the good ole days!
Her french style eyelashes, plus . . . I distinctly heard her say a french word at one point (I think it was French Fries), so I'm also thinking this was to parody the French Connection as well . . . Oh wait, that wasn't made yet. Hmmmmm . . .
Gremlins look good with Cragars.
Finally somebody that understand cars.
My sister had one with slotmags in 1980.....it was a 3 speed manual....235 inline 6
The Gremlin X could be had with a Factory 360 V8 which made it fairly competitive.
That car was featured in Hot Rod Magazine because they put a V-8 in it. The chase scene was the only thing good in this movie. It ends in the Astro Dome which was fairly new at the time. Showing my age again.
My cousin had a plum colored 72 gremlin x with 304 V8 and stick shift. It would roll smoke off the tires in first and second gear . Fast little car.
that damn road runner is worth a watch
This is a great period piece of Houston in 1970 even though it's a weird Robert Altman movie. Really is a must-see for Houstonians since it was filmed in Houston. The Astrodome at the end is amazing. Amazing because nothing is near it. Today it's covered up with sprawling city.
It's a virtual time capsule with many site of the city we'll never see again.
That '70 Plymouth Roadrunner was BADASS, that's what the big block Mopar is supposed to sound!!! Shelley Duvall looked like she had a damn good time drivin' that Monster of a Mopar Musclecar!!!
love when the captain passes the cop they're in high speed pursuit doing about 30 mph
This was definitely one of the weirdest movies I've ever seen
Then you haven't seen *A Clockwork Orange,* I take it...
🖒😉
Try Repo Man
House (1977), 2001: A Space Oddysey, most of John Waters' filmography, etc.
@@jmmartin7766 She did say "ONE OF", not THE weirdest.
"I'm goin' ninety, it ain't scary, 'cuz I got Magnetic Mary....."
I wonder if the continuity editor kept his / her job as the police car switches back and forth between a '67 and '71 Fury?
The camaro also changed from a full to a split bumper, hahaha
Typical of every movie and tv show of the era
As they went from Old Spanish Trail at Fannin near the Astrodome to what looked to be Friendswood and back.
You could see 610 in the background
The supercop in the Camaro looks like he's driving while he has a campfire in the front seat...toasty marshmallows..
Movie magic! Johnson’s police cruiser turns from a 70 fury to a 68 fury when turning and back again!!!
The Camaro also changes from a full bumper, to a split bumper model
@@matthewsherman1450 The way it smacked the curb on the bridge should have knocked the rear axle out of kilter, was that when the model changed?
@@rnash999 it changes over long before he curbs it. When he first takes off at the beginning of the chase, it's a solid bumper. At 1:18 the Camaro changes to a split bumper.
the very definition of a hard turn!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤷♂️
I thought I remember a quick scene where Shelley flips the switch under the dash and the Air Grabber comes up. Hmmm. Must be the Mandela Effect again!
Shelley Duvall driving a 1970 Plymouth Road Runner in Vitamin C seems to going faster than the Camaro.
The Road Runner has an Air Grabber hood so it's either a Hemi or a 440. The 1970 Camaro Z-28 used a slightly detuned 350 from the Corvette, so the Road Runner has a lot more power.
@@gamewizard1760 More power yes, but not a lot more. The 1970 Camaro Z/28 came with the original LT-1 producing 360 hp compared to the 440 with 375 hp or 390 hp or the 426 Hemi with 425 hp, although it doesn't sound like a Hemi. The LT-1 in the Corvette produced 370 hp, due to a more efficient exhaust manifold. The LT-1 engine was identical in both vehicles.
The Air Grabber was optional on 383 and 440-6bbl Roadrunners but was standard on Hemi cars. Optional for 440-4bbl and 440-6bbl GTX but standard on Hemi optioned GTX cars as well.
Sally Kellerman drives a Gremlin
50 HP high performance gloves.
Lmfao
Love the Knockoff Bullitt music. That 70 Runner, OMG !!!!!
I was 4 years old and lived about 5 miles from this place at the time.
The Astrodome area was a wide open prairie in 1970. Massive fuster cluck now.
I had thought if that area was all developed now. LOL
Astroworld is a vacant memory
absolutely. There was fine dining and little crime then also. Now those hotels are shitholes and before HPD cleaned up that area it was full of prostitutes and crime. Prostitutes work off the net (and out of those crappy hotels) now but the crime stuck. This movie sucks but it's a really amazing period piece for Houstonians. Houston was filled with wonder back then...before we all moved to the suburbs. Well, the thinking people did.
No one else noticed that the Camaro changed from a Z28 to an RS?
split bumper to full....yup
Yaounto; That's wrong, ALL CAMAROS END UP BEING Z 28s
Just like the 2 different cop cars...
Cause *nobody* minds slamming an RS into a concrete railing. *Everyone* minds when a Z28 gets injured... Think it's illegal in Texas...
Both cars were Z/28s both had the grill emblem.
Magic @ Camaro 0:59 Standard Z28 , 1:20 Split Bumper RS Z28, BEST Camaro is the 69 Indy Pace Car @ 0:53 ! SWEET !
You know shit is about to get real when they put on the driving gloves AND buckle up the seatbelt! :D
I dig the Starsky and Hutch Gremlin!!!
Pistol grip 4 speed ole Shelley is shifting in that '70 Roadrunner, Nice.
The gloves and seat belt...Shades of the Bullitt chase. ;
The butt plug on the dash, not so much.
This is some great HD!
Those sneakers look so cute as she floors the Road Runner.
Great shot earlier in the movie of the vacuum-operated Air Grabber hood scoop retracting on the R.R.!
Love the fact that Shelly was a stoner ....
I lover her flooring the Road Runner in her cute Keds sneakers reminds me of a good friend of mine; she wears Keds with no socks pedal pumping!
@:38 That comic book was 0.15 cents. Those were the days. And the 70's had high inflation.
@osp80 Captain America, the best!
Forget the comic book....gas .32 cents!
@@ftmt9568 Yeah but if you adjust for inflation/pay wages for today you're looking at roughly $2 a gallon like we have now. For that matter, there were a lot places in the U.S in 1970 that had .25 cent gas.
By the end of the 70’s, those comics were 40 cents
@@thebigpicture2032 Just about tripled. And then the party really kicked off.
1:37 Hot Lips Houlihan standing by to run interference.
and in a Gremlin no less
1:19 Wow, that Camaro passed that cop car like it was going 20 mph. Because it was going 20 mph.
BRDSHT
The cop car changed from a ‘70 Fury to a ‘67 Fury and back to a ‘70 again.
Hey! They're the cops-- they can do what they want!
Wow, they are going so fast!... if 40 km/h can be counted as "fast"...
Now I have another movie to watch.
starting at 1:17 , looks like they going for a Sunday drive !
1:25-At least the guy in the Camaro's buckled up. Rare back in 1970.
Nice scène 👌the z28 is beautiful 👌
Peace ✌️
July 11 2024. R.I.P. Shelley. 😞
nice Z28.......too bad the guy cant drive it in a slide worth a damn......cool pistol grip bird too
32 cent gas!!!
al fresco IKR!!!!
thats $2.05
You know shits about to get real when the driver puts on driving gloves and does up their lap-only seatbelt! :D :D
Check out the BIG fender to door panel gap at 1:18.
Legendary build quality of the 70s....
@1:02, well the corner of Fannin and OST has changed a bit
Some badass car's in the movie
Pistol grip 4 speed was the most awesome looking shifter there was MEAN as HELL looking n Tough I don't wanna here something else look better
Those are some nice looking cars.
RIP Shelley Duvall
wow, shelly was BA before fairytale theatre!
wrecked a 70-1/2 Z28!! AHHHHHHHHH!
OLD SPANISH TRAIL! OST! 😄😅
So much has been built up there since this movie was made! 😁
Me trying to pull off cool drift in front of friends in GTA 1:46
ha ha--- looked like Tom Scholz from rock group Boston driving the getaway car.
A Gremlin X!!
It was so empty back then, Houston I mean
the good ole days
ya wow ost+fannin seeing nothing but power lines and green.... wow
Catch the “Domed Stadium” sign?
I was wondering what that sign was referring to.
Two 70 Z/28's there. One with and the other without the rally sport option.
RIP Shelly
Strange Funny Movie from 1970. Shelley Duvall & Jennifer Salt Were a Couple of Dolls.
RIP Shelley Duvall
😢💔
I wonder if that Gremlin had the 304?
Hey , I found Waldo
FYI, the choice of a Roadrunner was in keeping with the avian theme of the movie.
Oooo yeaghh get Shelly another 1 of these cars and I guarantee she'll feel better , i'll be waiting for you to swing by and pick me up , Shell!!
Classic cars
Wooohooo Stand on it Shelly 😆😆 and thats my favorite song by Mel McDaniel 🙂🙂
My grandfather managed a drive in. I got to see that movie there. I was interesting
Why does Bud Cort look so much like where's Waldo?
Wayne Rocha oh yeah that's right, probably explains why I haven't found him yet, lol.
He also was the inspiration for Harry Potter!
Forgot it was lap belts only
Interesting to see every car in the old days would do burn outs
Even the Gremlin "got some"
.
The tires weren't as good then and the cars were more traction-limited then than now. Much easier to spin the tires then versus now with the same power.
🤔 I love/want all of the great cars in the movie, but am I the only one that also wants the Captain America comic book? 0:37 😏
Same here, captain america Steve rogers
RIP Shelley Duvall ⭐⭐.
I wonder if the RR with the Air Grabber survives to this day
Check out the super rare Cragar GT Plus wheels on the Roadrunner. They were basically a Cragar version of Hurst wheels.
I found Waldo!
@1:35, Absolutely luv the Red, super-charged, AMC Gremlin Pacer. American muscle car at its' best.
M0D60 it was just called a gremlin not a gremlin Pacer they were two different cars
Now I know. Thanx.
I doubt in very much it was supercharged.304 at best.
Wonder what they stuffed under the hood of the AMC Grimlin in that movie?It moved quite efficiently.
Pistol grip shifter, LoL!!
1:25 why is there a bright light coming from the dashboard lol. If their idea was to show his face better, it didn't work.
Crazy that area of Houston is all businesses now
i never believed a chase like that was possible
fyi some of those gremlins came with 7 liter motors customers ordered them
The largest engine you could get in a Gremlin from the factory was the 304 cid .
A nod to Lalo Schifrins music score in 1968s 'Bullitt'.
The Z went from a 1 piece bumper to a split bumper.
Looks like a orange 1968 Dodge Road Runner. Most likely a 383, 440 or 426 hemi engine. Very nice car!!!
When she described it before both of them took a ride, she mentioned the 426 big block. I think it was showcase for the then new Dodge Road Runner.
It was a 1970 Plymouth Road Runner 383 big block with a four speed.
Roadrunners were made by Plymouth. @@texan-american200
I want that Dodge Cornet
didn't that model of cop sport a 440
Hello I'm Shelly Duvall
This movie is so odd - I saw it when it came out and thought to myself then WTF did I just see?
RIP
