About this episode

Sam Clements discusses Pee-wee's Big Adventure with filmmakers Phil Lord and Christopher Miller.

Sam Clements is curating a fictional film festival. He'll accept almost anything, but the movie must not be longer than 90 minutes. This is the 90 Minutes Or Less Film Fest podcast. In episode 162 Sam is joined by filmmakers Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, the duo behind Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, The Lego Movie, and Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. Their new movie Project Hail Mary, starring Ryan Gosling is in UK cinemas from 20 March 2026. Phil and Chris have chosen Pee-wee's Big Adventure (90 mins). Tim Burton's directorial debut from 1985 stars Paul Reubens, Elizabeth Daily, and Mark Holton. Sam, Phil and Chris discuss filming Project Hail Mary in the UK, what makes the perfect screenplay structure, and how they bonded at university over Pee-wee's Big Adventure.
