Feel Good Films For Stressful Times: 'Harvey' (1950)

Few films can touch "Harvey" in the feel-good stakes. It's a sweet, warm and uplifting story about friendship, eccentricity, acceptance, and giant invisible rabbits...
It's just a delight in every way.
If you've never seen it, you're in for a special treat.

If you have seen it - why not watch it again!
