40th Anniversary!

Featuring a new animated short film before the feature.

In this hilariously zany tale of a rebel and his bike, fun-loving Pee-Wee Herman (the great Paul Reubens) discovers that his beloved red bicycle has been stolen, which turns his world upside down.  Determined to reunite with his super-cool set of wheels, Pee-Wee sets off on a wild and wacky journey to find his bike, hitting the road and having lots of big adventures along the way, including tangling with a tough biker gang, meeting a ghostly trucker named Large Marge, and even starring in his own movie!  Beetlejuice director Tim Burton's debut feature film is a colorfully crazed comedy of epic, and Pee-Wee sized, proportions!  (Dir. by Tim Burton, 1985, USA, 91 mins., Rated PG)
