Headfirst into Happiness (German: Kopfüber ins Glück) is a 1931 German comedy film directed by Hans Steinhoff and starring Jenny Jugo, Fritz Schulz and S. Z. Sakall. A separate French-language version Everybody Wins was also produced. Such multiple-language versions were common during the early years of sound before dubbing became more widespread.
