Editorial Review: Amazon.com essential video: Alfred Hitchcock's 1956 remake of his own 1934 spy thriller is an exciting event in its own right, with several justifiably famous sequences. James Stewart and Doris Day play American tourists who discover more than they wanted to know about an assassination plot. When their son is kidnapped to keep them quiet, they are caught between concern for him and the terrible secret they hold. When asked about the difference between this version of the story and the one he made 22 years earlier, Hitchcock always said the first was the work of a talented amateur while the second was the act of a seasoned professional. Indeed, several extraordinary moments in this update represent consummate filmmaking, particularly a relentlessly exciting Albert Hall scene, with a blaring symphony, an assassin's gun, and Doris Day's scream. Along with Hitchcock's other films from the mid-1950s to 1960 (including Vertigo, Rear Window, and Psycho), The Man Who Knew Too Much is the work of a master in his prime. --Tom Keogh Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - Nothing beats the classics!In my humble opinion, some of the best movies I've ever seen were good old classics like this one. Although I am only 22 years of age, Jimmy Stewart is one of my favorite actors, and this is my favorite of Hitchcock's works. Doris Day outdid herself as the mourning mother, and the two of them did a very good job playing a married couple. I think this movie, as far as the acting is concerned, was way ahead of its time. Method acting was still in its infancy (if that) but the two of them did such an ...

You will enjoy it from the start to the finish and then you may just want to watch it again.....and again! It's one of my all-time favorite movies! Rating: - James Stewart is "The Man Who Knew Too Much"In 1934, Alfred Hitchcock made a masterpiece in filmaking called "THE MAN WHO KNEW TOO MUCH" and needless to say, it was a huge hit with audiences. In 1956, Hitch was practically forced to make a remake of the original. He never wanted to remake any of his pictures, and "The Man Who Knew Too Much" was no exception. Amazingly, even though he did not want to make it, the remake is great. James Stewart stars as Dr. Ben McKenna who is vacationing in Morocco along with his wife, (Doris Day) and his son Hank ...
