When you think of 1950 two movies usually come up All About Eve and Sunset Boulevard. But there is another quaint little movie that i simply adore: Harvey. It stars Jimmy Stewart (whom i love) as Elwood P. Dowd, a gentle man who has a 6 foot invisible rabbit friend. Obviously everyone thinks that he is crazy. His sister (Josephine Hull) decides to institutionalize him. But they think that his sister is the crazy one and lock her up. The doctor and nurse fall in love with Elwood P. Dowd and Harvey (not literally

Harvey is the underrated movie of 1950. Jimmy Stewart is lovable as Elwood. Josephine Hull won the Oscar in a very tough year, but yes she deserved it. Harvey is never seen but the audience knows he is there. The rest of the supporting cast is good as well.

I highly recommend this movie. Harvey will cheer you up and make your troubles go away. Perfect on a rainy day...sit back and enjoy!
