Jandy Hardesty’s review published on Letterboxd:
Jon's been after me to watch this for quite a while, and he was totally right. He knows my taste pretty well, especially when it comes to off-beat humor. I can definitely see us coming back to this one often, and quoting it even more.
How it entered my Flickchart:
Pee-Wee's Big Adventure > Benji
Pee-Wee's Big Adventure > The Stratton Story
Pee-Wee's Big Adventure < The Fugitive
Pee-Wee's Big Adventure < Black Dynamite
Pee-Wee's Big Adventure > Topper
Pee-Wee's Big Adventure < (500) Days of Summer
Pee-Wee's Big Adventure < The Master
Pee-Wee's Big Adventure < Robin Hood
Pee-Wee's Big Adventure > The Lives of Others
Pee-Wee's Big Adventure > Barton Fink
Pee-Wee's Big Adventure > Goodfellas
Final ranking: #358
Incidentally, this was one of the harder Flickchart additions I've done in a while. I had to think really hard about SEVERAL of these match-ups. I mean, Pee-Wee's Big Adventure vs. The Master? How do you even approach that?
