Mazursky has crafted a story populated with humanity and decency, and where the only true villain is father time. Harry and Tonto is sort of a modernized, colorized and Americanized version of Umberto D.. Sad but still heartwarming.
Sweet movie. Funny at times and sad too. Amazing that Art Carney was able to portray this role because he was only known for his goofy character on the honeymooners. The young actors who play his children who eventually go on to big careers are great too.

A poignant and at times funny masterpiece. Art Carney is absolutely fantastic.
i remember ppl talking about this, so i might be interested to see what they are talking about
This board looks lonely. Be the first to talk about "Harry and Tonto" !
