Welcome to the world of Eldwood P. Dowd. Mr.Dowd is a very pleasant, good-hearted innocent man who treat everybody with respect and love.I don't think he ever hated anybody in his life he always find good in everybody no matter how bastard you are and how much you disrespect him he will always love you.He is free of envy,jealousy and hatred,He never lie and cheat and never speak ill of others and that makes him happiest human in the world,he is completely satisfied with himself and the world,everyday is a beautiful day for him.He is a kind of guy you always want to be with him and to be his friend,but he has a problem too and the problem is his friend Harvey(who is only visible to him only) a six feet three and a half inch Rabbit,now whenever he introduce this Rabbit with everyone he meet they get scared of him and run away from him.This constant trouble caused by Harvey compelled Mr.Dowd's sweet-and-sore elder sister Veta to send him to sanatorium. Now,the whole things turns upside down from here and thus,movie becomes one of the most funny, wild and touching cinematic experience of my life.
The first part of the movie is filled with strangest moments,twists and turns that you won't expect to happen but when they occurs you won't be able to stop the bursts of laugh,the first part of the movie is wild, very fastly but very nicely paced that gives us a very funny and lovely ride.In the second part movie gets into something deeper,serious and mysterious,it touches you,makes you realize something and delivers you the beautiful message without any effort at the ending but also remains very funny all the time.
Mr.Elwood P.Dowd is portray by James Stewart and thus it doesn't need any further explanation. But the most memorable thing of the movie was the acting of Josephine Hull as the Veta Louisse Simmons.Even if her character remained funny all the time She really gravitate the whole movie towards her.The performance from every single caste was wonderful.
The character of Mr.Dowd is really interesting,either you will find him naive,retard and rubbish or you will love him,it just depends on your mentality.For me he is just a perfect human because he is free of every thing that makes us unhappy,he is untouched by evilness of human mind. So what makes him believe that he has a giant Rabbit as his friend? Because the world,the peoples around him is not what he deserved, he deserved something better,something more innocent and pure that doesn't envy or feel jealous from him or anybody and this he only found in his imaginary friend Harvey.
Harvey is a feel-good movie,the kind of movie that put a smile on your face,you feel better after watching such movies.May be i am exaggerating but,If you don't like the idea of movie and find this movie overemotional,unrealistic and pretentious then you really should start worrying about yourself because i can say there is nothing wrong with the movie,there must be something wrong with you.This movie is based on a wonderful idea which is also get proper treatment from its director and writer.Such kind of movies are almost impossible these days and this movie consists of all the reasons why i liked old b&w movies.
