A one-off comic masterpiece from Tim Burton, featuring the infantile kids TV character Pee Wee Hermans search for his stolen bicycle. Given an incredible lease of life by Burtons visual imagination (he was a Disney animator before directing this, his first feature) Pee-Wee is a bizarre collection of episodes that never stop jumping around thanks to Danny Elfmans witty score and the sharpest writing, courtesy of Phil Hartman (The Simpsons) and Paul Reubens himself.
Together, Burton and Herman make use of every type of screen comedy verbal, visual, slapstick, sexual, even cartoon-in a film which holds as many delights for adults as for their offspring.
