Pee-Wee's Big Adventure with Sarah Jae Leiber

Film Fest

Hop on our comically beautiful bicycle and take a ride with us back to a time when Tim Burton was just a weirdo animation school grad with something to prove and an SNL reject named Paul Reubens suddenly had the keys to the Hollywood kingdom. We're talking Large Marge, studio backlots, and Pee-Wee's Big Adventure with critic and playwright Sarah Jae Leiber!
