The Astronaut Farmer
Texan Charles Farmer abandoned the Air Force to get a man to rescue the family ranch when his dad died. Like most ranchers, he dominates his bank. He's an astrophysicist having a rocket in his barn - one he has built and would like to take into space. It's his fantasy. The FBI places him under surveillance when he attempts to purchase rocket fuel, if he files a flight plan, and also he is stalled by the FAA -- but Charles is undeterred.
