Harvey (1950)
The Wonderful Pulitzer Prize Play … becomes one of the Great Motion Pictures of our Time!
Synopsis
The story of Elwood P. Dowd who makes friends with a spirit taking the form of a human-sized rabbit named Harvey that only he sees (and a few privileged others on occasion also.) After his sister tries to commit him to a mental institution, a comedy of errors ensues.
