[net.movies] Pee Wee loses his wallet

*Spoiler aproaching* if you care about such things.

Well, I enjoyed Pee Wee's Big Adventure.  Not all the humor in the movie
is as broad and obvious as some people think.  Some folks think all it takes
to act like Pee Wee is to relapse.  Well, that may be true, but there's
some subtlery, too.  To get to the point, Pee Wee leaves his wallet at the
fortune teller's, and doesn't notice until he gets to a diner several days
later and has to pay by washing dishes.  Well, that's just like how little
kids when they lose something don't notice for the *longest* time.  What's
even funnier is when he leaves his polka-dotted kerchief on the boxcar, and
doesn't notice for the rest of the movie.  How's that for subtle humor?

When you lose something out of a bag, just remember that each bag has a hole
in it.
