This cult-classic invites us on the road as we see the world through the bright and slightly tilted lens of our favorite manchild, Pee-wee Herman. Pee-wee’s life is pretty good. He lives in a playhouse, has special morning routines, quirky friends, and a person crushing on him (not unlike a pink-wearing doll who also has a movie out this summer). All is well until Pee Wee’s prized bike goes missing. He has no choice but to go on an adventure to save it. (U.S, 1985, 91 m)
“Everything about Pee-wee’s Big Adventure, from its toy-box colors to its superb, hyper-animated Danny Elfman score to the butch-waxed hairdo and wooden-puppet walk of its star and mastermind is pure pleasure.” – Salon.com
