Poppy (Sally Hawkins) is an irrepressibly cheerful primary school teacher who won't let anyone or anything get her down. Even when her bicycle, which she so happily rides through the busy streets of London is stolen, her first thought is only: "I didn't even get a chance to say goodbye." Living with her flatmate Zoe (Alexis Zegerman), Poppy has a gift for making the most of life. Determined to learn to drive, she finds herself matched with Scott (Eddie Marsan), an uptight driving instructor who is everything she is not. From Director Mike Leigh (Vera Drake) HAPPY-GO-LUCKY is a laugh-out-loud comedy about having fun, looking for love and getting on with life. In UK cinemas April 18, for more information, please visit www.happy-go-lucky-movie.co.uk
Check it out! Also, Happy-Go-Lucky will be one of the main films at the Toronto International Film Festival this year. In the effervescent new comedy from director Mike Leigh ("Vera Drake," "Secrets & Lies"), Sally Hawkins stars as the unforgettable Poppy, an irrepressibly free-spirited school teacher who brings an infectious laugh and an unsinkable sense of optimism to every situation she encounters as a single woman in London. When Poppy's commuter bike is stolen, she signs up for driving lessons with Scott (Eddie Marsan), who turns out to be her polar opposite -- a fuming, uptight cynic who takes himself extremely seriously. As the tension of their weekly lessons builds, Poppy's story takes alternately hilarious and serious turns -- careening from flamenco classes to first dates--becoming a touching, truthful and deeply life-affirming exploration of one of the most mysterious and often the most elusive of all human emotions: happiness.
The brilliant British director Mike Leigh with Happy-Go-Lucky, a beautiful comedy about the power of positivity, even in the messed-up world we're living in. In the leading role there's Sally Hawkins (winner for her performance of the Silver Bear as best actress at 2008 Berlin Film Festival), who gives a beautiful performance as Poppy, a teacher who has the strength to overcome her daily dramas with a contagious optimism.

http://TrailerUnleashed.com Happy Go Lucky Official Trailer In theaters: October 10, 2008 Synopsis: "Poppy is a teacher from north London whose life, at first glance, seems to be full of complications. It is hard to figure if she is a little crazy and irresponsible or deeply sane and sensible. Either way, everybody falls in love with her for better or for worse."
Released April 18th. Director Mike Leigh will be attending a special advance preview of his latest film, 'Happy-Go-Lucky' at the Glasgow Film Theatre on Monday the 7th of April, 7.45pm. Mike Leigh's new film revolves around its central character- a smart confident, goofball primary teacher named Poppy (Hawkins in memorable performance), a teacher from north London. A breezy as the title suggests, Happy-Go-Lucy is about as far as can be imagined from such bleak Leigh classic as Vera Drake and Naked, but does so without being at all syrupy or sentimental. Already a critical smash at the Berlin Film Festival, this special screening will offer Glasgow cinema fans a chance to see Leigh's latest feature 2 weeks before its UK release, with the opportunity to ask the director questions afterwards. On the night of the screening, a seat number will be picked at random offering the lucky winner a signed copy of Wallflower Press' critical study on the films of Mike Leigh. This will undoubtedly be a sold out event so please ensure to book early to avoid disappointment. To book tickets please phone the book office on 0141 332 6535 or come to the GFT box office in person. Unfortunately we cannot take reservations in advance. Tickets cost £5 and £4 for concessions.

London 14th April 2008. A trip out of my patch - 10 stops on a packed No 24 bus to the Odeon Camden when Mike Leigh was hosting a charity UK premiere of his latest movie. A splendid Brit-cast all showed up for the event. No red-carpet and barricade this time and no fan crush so we could spend a leisurely time with the stars. Jim Broadbent, John Hurt and Eddie Marsan were the big draw. All spent loads of time with the compact fanline. We all had hugs, posed pics, autographs and a chat. Even the security folk were nice here in the provinces. They let us stay out of the rain and use the loos while we waited. Thank you guys. They say travel broadens the mind, it was definately true in this case. Stars and celebs in attendance: Mike Leigh - Director Sally Hawkins Eddie Marsan Jim Broadbent John Hurt Sue Johnston Alexis Zegerman Andrea Riseborough Sinead Matthews Kate O'Flynn Lesley Manville Alison Steadman As usual, please let me know of omissions, errors and comments.
