If you loved The Bishop's Wife, try Harvey

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Henry Koster, and they both carry the bittersweet, cozy, playful, tender mood tags, and they sit in Comedy / Fantasy territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Bishop's Wife, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Harvey is

One imagines this film played very differently in Eisenhower's America. Kindly Elwood P. Dowd's insistence on the existence of his giant rabbit friend causes his exasperated sister to attempt to have him committed. Sanity and madness become delightfully difficult to distinguish, even if the answers seem rather obvious.
