PEE-WEE AS HIMSELF: Filmmaker Matt Wolf on his two part HBO film – Interview

PEE-WEE AS HIMSELF movie poster | ©2025 HBO

Pee-wee Herman was a character so beloved that people often confused him with his creator/portrayer, the late Paul Reubens (1952-2023). Pee-Wee is an exuberant childlike persona who can be selfish and bratty, but is unafraid of being bold and encountering the odd and the weird. Reubens first developed Pee-Wee when he was part of the Groundlings improvisational troupe in the 1970s, then centered a stage show around the character. In 1985, he wrote and starred in the feature film PEE-WEE’S BIG ADVENTURE, which gave a major launch to not only Reubens’s career, but that of the movie’s director, Tim Burton. […]Read On »

However, the title of the doc, which is now available on HBO and Max, could hardly be more appropriate in the more colloquial sense of “BS.” On August 29, 2021, ESPN televised a high school football game between Bishop Sycamore and the top-ranked-for-football IMG Academy. Bishop Sycamore did so badly, and had so many player injuries, that it wasn’t just a case of a blowout score in favor of IMG; questions arose as to how such […]Read On »
