One of my all time favorites. Time to put “Harvey” in the DVD player, followed by “The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance.”

Jimmy Stewart was one of the last great Americans out of Hollywood. A man that obviously loved America and wasn’t ashamed to show it. Now all you get are Marxist asswipes like Richard Gere, Ben Affleck and Sean Penn. Everytime I see a movie, it has at least one star that’s come out against America in some way, shape or form.

Jimmy Stewart's career was legendary:

1930s - 21 movies
1940s - 15 movies
1950s - 22 movies
1960s - 13 movies
1970s - 7 movies
1980s- 1 movie

Can you imagine one of the modern-day Hollywood elites making 22 movies in 1 year?

When my daughter was a teen-ager,she was so fond of Jimmy Stewart that she wrote to him. He actually wrote to her in return. Nice man.

Let’s not leave out his career in the Air Force either (Brig. General, IIRC)

Jimmy Stewart was a class act. Not only a great actor but was a role model. Not too many of those today. I love Harvey, Wonderful Life and many more.

My Father in Law was an Armorer and Gunner on a B-24, did a nose dive at Swinefurt(SP). It was told that he would not take a promotion with out his entire crew being promoted also, hearsay.

Great piece on one of my alltime favorite Hollywood actors-—but why did they have to sully it with the entirely out-of-place reference to Barack Obama?
