What critics compared Harvey to
The mirrored sequins on a Chanel dress cast reflections that flit across the walls like mischievous wraiths, and you may even detect a hint of “Harvey” (1950)—in which Jimmy Stewart was best friends with an invisible rabbit—as the doors of a hotel elevator open and close to let through a nonexistent guest.
Think of Jimmy Stewart's remarkable performance in "Harvey" in 1950.
It's like a version of "Harvey" where we see James Stewart and the rabbit, but not the wondering or dyspeptic people around them.
Is this his James Stewart “Harvey” moment?
