The last holiday weekend of summer is here—but Palm Springs shows no sign of slowing down its diverse lineup of activities. The vibrant desert culture is one of the many reasons so many people come to Palm Springs in search of luxury properties in Rancho Mirage and other cities in the area.
On Thursday, August 29, the Classic Comedies screenings continue with the whimsical fantasy, Harvey. The screening takes place from 6 to 8 pm at the Annenberg Theater. Directed by Henry Koster (The Bishop’s Wife, My Man Godfrey), Harvey stars James Stewart as Elwood P. Dowd, a sweet-natured eccentric with a six foot imaginary friend, Henry the Rabbit, whose presence drives Dowd’s sister Veta (Josephine Hull) to distraction. Hull won both an Oscar and a Golden Globe award for her performance, and Stewart received Best Actor nominations from both. Catching a screening like this is bound to guarantee laughs and is the perfect way to relax after a day at work or looking at luxury properties in Rancho Mirage.
