Yarg.... Yes, Jimmy Stewart was selected to portray me in that 1950 movie and Harvey starred as himself! I was behind the camera in an advisory capacity and they did lace a number of my favorite lines into the script, like.........
Elwood P. Dowd: Well, I've wrestled with reality for 35 years, doctor, and
I'm happy to state I finally won out over it.
Elwood P. Dowd: My mother used to say to me, "Elwood"---she always
called me Elwood---"In this world, Elwood, you must be oh-so smart, or
oh-so pleasant." For years I was smart. I recommend pleasant---and you
may quote me. |
