You just have to love Jimmy Stewart in the movie Harvey. His character is so extraordinarily different from the typical and yet he's the most lovable of the lot of them. I've really come to appreciate this movie more in the last few years. I can't believe this is me saying this, but I actually disliked Jimmy Stewart and most of the movies he starred in, when I was very small. Thankfully, I've realized how wrong I was, *smile* and he's been one of my favorite actors for years.

Elwood P. Dowd: Years ago my mother used to say to me, she'd say, "In this world, Elwood, you must be" - she always called me Elwood - "In this world, Elwood, you must be oh so smart or oh so pleasant." Well for years I was smart. I recommend pleasant. You may quote me.

I have never seen this movie!! I'll have to watch it next time it comes on.
OMGosh I LOVE LOVE LOVE Jimmy Stewart and I haven't seen this one! Off to find it...
That is so funny to me, you guys! I thought "Harvey" was one of those great American customs...you know like watching "It's a Wonderful Life" every year at Christmas! Around here, (in my extended family) you watch these sorts of movies whether or not you love them...just because it's what you do! LOL! : )
I guess we're just sort of silly!

Hi --this comment is almost a year late, but I just stumbled upon your blog. I'm thinking of putting a post up on my blog about the movie Harvey, because I just saw it this past weekend and LOVED it. I watched it with my 11 year old daughter and she liked it so much, she put it in the next day and started watching it all over again.
P.S. I like your blog
