Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com essential video
It's always a small surprise to revisit this movie and realize what a subtly dark performance James Stewart gives as an alcoholic who claims he keeps company with a six-foot-tall, invisible rabbit. 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
Customer Reviews
"He's a pooka!"
James Stewart is excellent in the role of Elwood P. Dowd. Harvey comes to life in this film version of Mary Chase's play, Harvey and brings with him a valuable lesson on acceptance and what true happiness is.
Wonderful movie
This is one of my favorite movies ever. Elwood Dowd is like a child in many ways, sees the good in everybody. It's kind of like Harvey is his guardian angel. Any movie that James Stewart is in is among the best.
Gotta Love Jimmy
Oh wow! I have been looking for this DVD for a long time. I LOVE this movie. Jimmy at his best. It is an old movie but still a great one. You will not regret watching it. So Funny!!!
