Re: Engineer Movies
If you broaden the set to include TV shows, then every episode of Gilligan's Island with "The Professor" in it! He was really more of an engineer than a scientist - of all the scientists I know, not one of them could make a radio out of a coconut, but most of the engineers I know can tell you the dielectric constant of coconut husk!
