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.
Spotlight customer reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: Classic Comment: What 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. Customer Rating: Summary: Great movie, but why not in widescreen? Comment: I'm giving the movie itself four stars, but if I were rating the product I would give it only two.
How come the only widescreen release of this movie is the one that comes with the big James Stewart package? It should also be rereleased by itself in widescreen, for those who already own one or more of the movies in the "The James Stewart Hollywood Legend Collection." I don't want to pay over $40 for movies I already own just so I could get "Harvey" in widescreen, but I refuse to buy anything in fullscreen since I learned how much it detracts from the film.
So it looks like I won't be getting "Harvey" after all. Too bad, it's a wonderful film. Customer Rating: Summary: An Interesting Movie Comment: My favorite part is Elwood's response when people ask "Can I do anything for you?" or "What can I do for you?" He says, "What did you have in mind?" and it throws people. They don't know how to react, which to me is funny.
I also like that the viewer gets to decide who's "sane" and "not sane". The cab driver's speech about the way people act on the drive to the sanitarium vs the way they act on the drive home was poignant. Customer Rating: Summary: An Enjoyable Movie Comment: This is another great classic. Its funny, thoughtful & up lifting. I was lucky enough to see the Broadway revival years ago with Jimmy Stewart, a great memory. Give this one a try. Customer Rating: Summary: Recommended purchase Comment: I love this movie. It is a classic James Stewart movie, that holds a bit of magic and reminds us on when we were young.
The dvd is in great condition and were delivered quickly. Thanks for the great service.
