:24:03
after we came back
after Mother had died.
:24:06
Myrtle Mae and I came back from
Des Moines to live with Elwood.
:24:09
I could see that he...
:24:12
That he...
That he what?
:24:14
Take your time.
Don't strain.
:24:17
Just, just let it come.
I'll wait for it.
:24:20
Doctor, everything I say to
you is confidential, isn't it?
:24:24
I am not a gossip. I am
a psychiatrist. Of course.
:24:28
For one thing, he
drinks. Mm-hmm. To excess?
:24:32
To excess?
:24:34
Don't you call it excess when
a man never lets a day go by...
:24:38
without stepping
into some cheap tavern,
:24:41
bringing home a lot of riffraff,
people you never heard of?
:24:45
If you don't call that excess, Doctor,
I'm sure I don't know what excess is.
:24:49
I didn't doubt
your statement.
:24:52
I merely wanted to know
if your brother drinks.
:24:54
Yes, I say definitely
Elwood drinks. Mm-hmm.
:24:58
I want him committed
out here permanently...
:25:00
because I cannot stand
another day of that Harvey!
:25:04
Don't you think it would have been
a little bit kinder of Mother...
:25:07
if she'd written us about
him. Now, be honest. Don't you?
:25:11
I really couldn't answer
that question. I can!
:25:14
Yes, it certainly
would have.
:25:16
This person
that you call Harvey,
:25:19
who is he?
He's a rabbit.
:25:23
Yes, perhaps.
But just who is he?
:25:26
Someone your brother picked up
in one of these bars?
:25:28
I've been telling you,
Harvey is a rabbit!
:25:31
A big white rabbit six feet high,
or is it six feet, three and a half?
:25:36
Heaven knows, I ought to know. He's
been around the house long enough!
:25:39
Mrs. Simmons, if I'm not
mistaken... Don't you understand?
:25:43
The rabbit's name
is Harvey.
:25:46
Harvey lives
at our house.
:25:49
Elwood buys theater tickets and
railroad tickets for both of them.
:25:54
He's lost interest
in everything else.
:25:56
And here I am trying to get
Myrtle Mae started...
