"He Laughed Last" is a 1956 film by Blake Edwards. A Runyonesque Roaring 20s musical comedy about a show girl who circumstance casts as an unlikely mob boss. Edwards adapted the film for his 1999 off-Broadway show, Big Rosemary. Edwards directed Cady Huffman in the Lucy Marlow role from the original. Edwards rewrote the show which he directed for a 2004 Los Angeles stage production starring Jennifer Leigh Warren. One of the highlights of the movie was when Frankie Laine sang a wonderful version of "Danny Boy" at the funeral of his mob boss. This song has never been recorded or available for purchase. The movie was a regular on late night television for many years, but hasn't been seen for a long time now.
