As Elwood P. Dowd, the actor emits a faint whiff of decay and spirits, yet Stewart also embraces Dowd's romanticism and grace with splendid ease. Based on a hit play and directed by Henry Koster, the film is terribly funny at times, especially whenever Elwood decides it's only polite to introduce Harvey to complete strangers. The supporting cast can't be beat. --Tom Keogh Description: James Stewart stars as Elwood P. Dowd, a wealthy alcoholic whose sunny disposition and drunken antics are tolerated by most of the citizens of his community. That is, until Elwood begins to claim that he has a friend named Harvey who is an invisisble six foot rabbit. Elwood's snooty socialite sister, Veta, determined to marry off her daughter Myrtle to a respectable man, begins to plot to keep Elwood's lunacy from interfering. Average Rating:

There are also a lot of good quotes in this movie. My favorite being: "Years ago my mother used to say to me, "In this world, Elwood, you must be oh so smart or oh so pleasant." Well, for years I was smart. I recommend pleasant." This is a great feel-good movie and James Stewart does a fabulous job as Elwood Dowd. Nobody could ...

I used to be smart... now I'm pleasant."It's really nice, upon occasion, to watch a movie that's nice and heartwarming without being sentimental and kitsch. The word used most often in "Harvey" is "pleasant." Pleasant works. And, like most of the characters decide, sometimes choosing to be pleasant is better than choosing to be regular, or choosing to be smart. Lucky for this movie, it's both pleasant and smart. Now, if you haven't seen this movie yourself, you've probably seen clips of it on other movies, such as "Field ...

Rating: - such a sweet movie...This was such a sweet movie that I purchased it as a Father's Day gift for my dad. He loved it too! Great gift idea. Rating: - ClassicWhat a good movie. This is what movies are supposed to be like. This is just a fun movie. Jimmy Stewart is good in this, very believable. Watch this and enjoy. |
