If you look closely - the pipe structure above the bridge structure is a "movie" rain system.

Also, the current bridge is on the right side of the photo.

Mustangdriver,if you click on the link to Airliners.net posted by Mark Nankivil above,there's an informative caption below the picture.To answer your question,it was the 1992 Dustin Hoffman movie "Hero".

That bridge is about 12 miles from my home in Southern California and I drive by it often. The town of Piru is very small and can pass for a "one horse town" in west Texas, so it is used often in movie shoots. A few miles east of there is where the air field flying scenes from the TV series Baa Baa Black Sheep took place. The runway is just a farm field now.
