This surprise hit showcases nerdy superstar Pee-wee Herman (Emmy-nominee Paul Reubens – “Blow,” TV’s “Murphy Brown”) in a mad-cap comedy-adventure about a unique “rebel” who takes to the road to track down the kidnappers of his beloved bicycle. Pee-wee Herman is “a genuine cult comic hero,” declares Joel Siegel. The Hollywood Reporter raves that this “isn’t just the funniest movie of the year; it’s one of the funniest movies ever.” Special appearances by Emmy-nominee Jan Hooks (“Saturday Night Live”), Emmy and Golden Globe-nominee Morgan Fairchild (“TV’s “Friends,” TV’s “Hotel”), Emmy and Golden Globe-winner James Brolin (“Catch Me If You Can,” TV’s “Hotel”) and rock group Twisted Sister. Directed by Academy Award-nominee Tim Burton (“Tim Burton’s Corpse Bride,” “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory”), written by Reubens and Emmy-winner Phil Hartman (“Saturday Night Live,” “NewsRadio”). Pee-wee’s Big Adventure (The Criterion Collection) 4K UHD
One of the most eccentric comedies of the 1980s, Pee-wee’s Big Adventure is a pop-culture touchstone that helped make a manic oddball named Pee-wee Herman—the creation and alter ego of actor-comedian Paul Reubens—into an icon for outsiders of all ages. It also established the distinctive style of director Tim Burton, whose eye-popping visual sense is already on full display in this, his first feature film. Following the gleefully irreverent Pee-wee as he embarks on a road trip to recover his beloved stolen bicycle, the movie unfolds with the antic invention of a live-action cartoon, combining a gallery of memorably wacky characters, colorful, kitschy Americana, and surreal flights of fancy into a joyously uninhibited paean to creativity and the spirit of childhood.
