Zeev, I worked on several of the Pee Wee movies as I have played oboe on many of Danny Elfman's film scores. I had heard about this and it is indeed very interesting. Milton Rubenfeld also had a small role in Big Top Pee Wee, where he played a character named.wait for it.HERMAN From: MoPo

And here is something I'm sure, most of you didn't know: 2014 saw the release of a documentary film called Above and Beyond. It was produced by Nancy Spielberg, the youngest sister of Steven Spielberg. It documents the story of the handful of American, and other foreign nationals, that were

Agreed. I've watched Big Adventure twenty times at least...practically had it by memory at one time...and he is never creepy in any discernible fashion. I think Adrian doesn't like public masturbation and is possibly unable to see past that incident in the life or the creator of the

It's such a great buzz when you actually see a poster like this up close and personal. I went over to Ron Borst's pad a few years ago and almost had a stroke when I walked into his living room. An unbelievable collection of stuff. A "White Zombie" six sheet? A "Werewolf of London" six sheet in

I think it’s clear by now that Adrian doesn’t enjoy Pee Wee. Who knew that when I posted this rather interesting article from the Times Magazine that we were going to unearth all this. Adrian seems to have a very clear idea of what and who is funny and what and who isn’t. But I think it’s

The upcoming Pee Wee film is done for Netflix rather than as a wide release theatrical… so… there will probably be few posters, few billboards and (even counting for inflation) less money spent on marketing than any of the prior films. It will not crowd any other comedians out of the movie

Stop me if you've heard this one before but Adrian doesn't like Pee Wee Herman!!! He's certainly no Steve Martin or Richard Pryor but he's better than Chevy Chase. C'mon!! Plus, there were,like, six times as many people in the Pythons...hardly fair. M

I saw Billy Connolly live four weeks ago - this is about the eighth time for me - Connolly is a comic god - his genius is that he is all about observation. Connolly has Parkinsons disease and also has had prostate cancer - both diagnosis on the same day - and yet he made us laugh about it.
