Biography

Gino Corrado s'installe aux États-Unis durant ses études. Il y débute au cinéma dans Intolérance de D. W. Griffith (avec Lillian Gish et Mae Marsh), sorti en 1916, et contribue à près de quatre-cents films américains, les trois derniers sortis en 1954.

Acteur de second rôle, principalement durant la période du muet, il est entre autres Marcel dans La Bohème de King Vidor (1926, avec Lillian Gish et John Gilbert) et Aramis dans Le Masque de fer d'Allan Dwan (1929, avec Douglas Fairbanks et Belle Bennett).

Mais le plus souvent, il tient des petits rôles non crédités (par exemple de serveur), notamment dans Casbah de John Cromwell (1938, avec Charles Boyer, Sigrid Gurie et Hedy Lamarr), Citizen Kane d'Orson Welles (1941, avec Orson Welles et Joseph Cotten), Casablanca de Michael Curtiz (1942, avec Humphrey Bogart et Ingrid Bergman), ou encore Les Cuistots de sa majesté de Sam Taylor (1944, avec Laurel et Hardy).

Et notons une vingtaine de westerns dans sa filmographie, dont L'Élixir du docteur Carter de Carl L. Pierson (1935, avec John Wayne et Marion Burns).

Portly amateur detective Runyan is hired by dental nurse Adams to investigate the unexplained murder of her boss. Suspicion falls on disappeared patient Clark, who had been helped by probable gangster Gordon. Runyan finds Boyd, Clark’s former lover and briefly his wife, who reveals that Clark had done time in jail. The police tell Runyan it was for robbery of half a million unrecovered dollars. In jail, Clark had a cellmate Deets, with whom he shared everything. On release, Deets had claimed Clark’s share of the loot from Gordon and had promised to eliminate Clark, whose corpse he left in a burnt-out truck. When he realised Clark had been having dental treatment, so his teeth could be identified, he killed first the unfortunate dentist and then the nurse as well. Runyan tracks him down and in a final shoot-out he meets his end.

Elwood P. Dowd (Stewart) is a middle-aged, amiable (and somewhat eccentric) individual whose best friend is an invisible 6' 3.5" tall rabbit named Harvey. As described by Dowd, Harvey is a pooka, a benign but mischievous creature from Celtic mythology who is especially fond of social outcasts (like Elwood). Elwood has driven his sister and niece (who live with him and crave normality and a place in society) to distraction by introducing everyone he meets to his friend, Harvey. His family seems to be unsure whether Dowd's obsession with Harvey is a product of his (admitted) propensity to drink or perhaps mental illness.
