Happy Ever After

Happy Ever After (1954)

The whole village mourns when General O'Leary, owner of a hunting estate in South Ireland, is killed in an accident. His nephew, Jasper O'Leary, takes over the state and soon has aroused the displeasure of all, with the exception of Serena McGluskey, as much a schemer as he is a cad. Led by Thady O'Heggarty, the villagers plot to drive Jasper away. They use the occasion of "O'Leary Night", when the ghost of the first O'Leary walks the halls, to create general chaos.

Wissenswertes

Happy Ever after is a 1954 British comedy film directed by Mario Zampi and starring David Niven, Yvonne De Carlo, Barry Fitzgerald and George Cole. It was written by Jack Davies, Michael Pertwee and L. A. G. Strong and concerns the accidental death of an Irish landowner who bequeaths his estate to his cousin.

Production

The film was originally known as O'Leary Night. It was shot at the Elstree Studios of Associated British with sets designed by art director Ivan King. Forty Hall near Enfield doubled for the ancestral Irish home of the O'Learys. Location shooting also took place in Braughing in Hertfordshire, where the railway station was renamed Rathbarney for the duration of the filming.

De Carlo said: "I think it will help me in comedy when it is released in this country. I have had my share of sirens and am happy to get away from them no matter what the part."
