message: Who Framed Roger Rabbit was set in 1947. Harvey (play) won the Pulitzer prize in 1945, so the character of Harvey the invisible rabbit would have been well-known (and mosty likely the subject of many such jokes) in 1947. Therefore it's not an anachronism.
Also, even if the the anachronism was correct, it would be an error in Who Framed Roger Rabbit, not this movie, so it shouldn't be listed here either way.
Just for interest's sake, it debuted on November 1, 1944.  64.231.15.43 11:53, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: See LarryMac user talk page for some more discussion about this. Based on that, going to change height back to 6'3.5" based on movie and IMDb quote unless further information develops.Kwedin (talk) 04:09, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

message: I've not seen this movie, but the 'imaginary' 6 feet tall, costume-style rabbit friend theme is also used in the movie Donnie Darko ("Frank") and The Sims 2 computer game (the "Social Bunny", appearing when a Sims social needs aren't being met and his mental health declines) - depictions quite possibly inspired by this film.  I'll leave it up to you guys to decide whether they should be included in the trivia.  ◄ИΞШSΜΛЯΞ► 16:47, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

message: Okay, I have to correct myself.  Earlier I stated that the inclusion of pooka was not warranted in this film, because of Celtic myths basically having nothing to do with Elwood's facination for six feet worth of rabbit.  However, upon changing the channel to Turner Classic Movies in which Harvey is playing at this time, and actually hearing Elwood say "Harvey the pooka", I have to admit my own wrongdoings for this page and my own bad edits.  So I, and this article, stand corrected.  Carajou 02:29, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The dude just admitted to making a mistake.  Perhaps slinging this kind of diatribe is unwarranted given this particular admittance.  Oh, and NOT signing your name, especially after this kind of immature personal attack, is also not advised.Kp.murphy (talk) 16:37, 1 February 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: yea.. the movie gives much food for thought...  "In this world, Elwood, you must be" — she always called me Elwood — "In this world, Elwood, you must be oh so smart.. or oh so pleasant." Well, for years I was smart.. I recommend pleasant. You may quote me." 2602:304:CDAF:A3D0:3CAB:31D5:F863:47DA (talk) 04:39, 20 February 2017 (UTC)

text: and pookas and Celtic myths having to do w/ "...rum-pots, crack pots, and 'how are you, Mr. Wilson?'" Very funny scene, jesse white should've gotten Best Support Actor nom/nod. 2602:304:CDAF:A3D0:3CAB:31D5:F863:47DA (talk) 04:53, 20 February 2017 (UTC)

message: My memory of the film is that Harvey is shown to be "real" -- when Elwood asks Harvey to sit down, we see an indent appear in the chair cushion. This is not mentioned in the article.

replies: text: At least once at the end of the movie we see Harvey open a door to walk through it.  Also he is in the painting that Elwood puts on the mantle in front of his mother's painting.  But whether or not he is real is best answered by the barman at Charlie's: "There's two schools of thought on that." Tripswithtiresias (talk) 23:59, 28 May 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Harvey poster 

message: The most recent edit to the article, as of this moment, removed the entry for "Harvey as Himself".  This AFI page dicusses that there was a credit for Harvey in the film in the notes near the end of the page, and "Himself" is listed in the character column of the cast list.  The AFI seems like a reputable source to me.  --LarryMac | Talk 12:47, 29 November 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Harvey in Cast List 

message: There is a reference to this movie in Field of Dreams: near the beginning, almost immediately after Ray Kinsella hears the initial voice (but before seeing the image of the baseball field), his daughter is watching a clip of Elwood describing Harvey to the psychologist near the end of the movie. After a few seconds of the clip, Ray turns off the TV and dismisses the man as "crazy".
If any other references to this movie exist in popular culture, please mention them - two or three will most likely allow inclusion in this article.--Compynerd255 (talk) 15:44, 29 September 2012 (UTC)
