Norbert makes just a very brief appearance as a
Zeppelin pilot towards the end of this 1991 Walt
Disney movie that is straight from the pulp fiction
genre. He ends up by being pushed out a window as he
is piloting the Zeppelin, and falls to his death. This is
one of those movies where you can't blink or you will
miss Norbert's brief appearance.
The movie features 1930's style gangsters, Nazi's, FBI
agents and spies. A young pilot by the name of Cliff
Secord stumbles upon a top-secret rocket-pack, and
with the help of his mechanic/mentor, Peevee, he
attempts to save his girl from the gangsters that have
kidnapped her, and manages to stop the Nazi soldiers
that have infiltrated America along the way -- all the
while posing as The Rocketeer. Bill Campbell stars as
Cliff Secord, the Rocketeer, with Alan Arkin as his
friend Peevee. The movie also features Timothy Dalton
and Paul Sorvino.
