See the most agreed on films →A gentle and pleasant man named Elwood P. Dowd delights in introducing everyone to his best friend, Harvey, a six-foot-three invisible rabbit. His constant companionship with this imaginary pooka causes considerable social embarrassment for his sister and niece, who decide to have him committed to a sanitarium. Their plan goes comically awry, leading to a series of misunderstandings that question what is real and what truly matters.
