Synopsis
Geoffrey Rush is the voice of the titular character in this short, clay-animated film about the life of a man with terrible luck. But even after being born with Tourette's Syndrome, losing a testicle, getting struck by lightning, and developing Alzheimer's, Harvie is still able to look on the bright side of life and understand the valuable things he has seen and learned along the way! HARVIE KRUMPET, which is the product of Australian director Adam Elliot, has won over 50 awards internationally, including Best Animated Short at the 2003 Academy Awards.

5.0 out of 5 stars Pure artistry, 20 May 2005
By Dennis E. Sisterson (London, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This is a delightful film... a biography of a man whose life is a succession of misfortunes yet who still manages to feel that life itself is a blessing, it's impossible not to warm to. Director Adam Elliot manages to tell this story from the heart, without a scrap of contrived sentimentality. He uses rough-hewn claymation models and minimalistic animation yet instils his characters with more warmth, reality and genuine humour than many a mega-budget feature.
Adam's other films, 'Uncle','Cousin' and 'Brother' also feature on this disc but it would be an injustice to think of them as bonus features or minor works in any way; they may have paved the way to Harvie Krumpet but they are every bit as good - both funny and touching.
It's unfortunate that the TV networks in this country seem to have lost interest in modern animation because in Adam Elliot's films both they and the wider public are missing a treat. He has a true artist's touch and I can't wait for his next film, whatever it might be.
