Pee Wee's Big Adventure

Back in the ’80s, actor Paul Reubens created a child-like fictional character named Pee Wee Herman. After a successful HBO special, he began performing as Pee Wee regularly, and eventually filmed the 1985 movie Pee Wee’s Big Adventure with director Tim Burton at the helm. Herman would go on to host a successful kids’ show that ran on CBS for five years before it was discovered that he was a bit of a pervert. The film, however, holds up as a cult classic and screens tonight at midnight at the Capitol Theatre as part of Cleveland Cinemas’ Late Shift series. Tickets cost $6. (Niesel)
