He didn't think he was right for Harvey, but I can't imagine anyone else playing that part. One of my favorite movies and mostly due to his performance.
@diegoinhoops I think the same, and am often trying to get my friends to see more. He is a stunnign actor who could do anything; the Kevin Spacey of then. He mentions creating moments, and "Harvey", and it's funny because one of my favourite Jimmy moments is in that film; when he is outside the bar and talks about people meeting Harvey, beautiful. "It's a Wonderful Life" he managed to play the whole spectrum of emotion; you want powerhouse acting, check out "Mr Smith Goes To Washington"
Dunno how old Mr. Stewart is in this interview, but he seems to have a good memory -- remembering the names of various tutors he had 30 or 40 years before.

I love the way Parky says that It's a Wonderful Life is a 'nice little film' - it's like the best Xmas film ever, certainly my fave!!

@inrwizards True, but the Western is the American Original Genre, that's what he meant. And I suspect you know that :D

Total master of his craft, poeple sometimes overlook just how good he was because he came across as an everyman in his films.

Jimmy Stewart - what an absolute legend! Great story teller as well as actor!

Will we ever again see actors of this calibre? I can't think of any of his movies that I didn't enjoy.

@felixq78 Don't think we will see any Hollywood actors like this again. They're all too full of themselves.. He was such a lovely bloke too.

Do you even have to ask why "It's a Wonderful Life" is Jimmy's favorite film of his?
