Some say it’s about mental health and alcoholism. I think it’s a story of an odd but happy man who has found peace albeit in a strange way.

This movie is a classic. The characters are great; the pace is just right! Also, the film is surprisingly wholesome.  It’s a must-watch.

By no means in the top tier of his films, it’s charm is that it’s little known and quirky.Compared to today’s budgets? Pennies in the couch.

Might be the most zen movie ever, but probably not intended. Stewart is insanely charming as the heartwarming lead talks to an unseen rabbit

If you can get past the horrifying realities of mental health treatment in 1950, then enjoy James Stewart at his “aw shucks” best.
