Dalí & Beyond Film Series: Tim Burton's Pee-Wee's Big Adventure Thursday, November 19, 6:00 p.m.
"Paul Reubens stars as his popular character Pee-Wee in a comedy he also co-wrote. The basic premise has Pee-Wee looking for his lost bike,
but the plot is really just a good excuse to see this brilliant comic display his virtuosity in some highly original, often hilarious
sequences. Danny Elfman contributes a distinctively quirky musical score. With Phil Hartman, James Brolin, Jan Hooks and Morgan Fairchild."
Facets (1985, 92 min.; rated PG).
Cost: Free with paid admission ($5 after 5 p.m. every Thursday)
