The Man Who Knew Too Much (1934 film) (Wikipedia.org)

} The Man Who Knew Too Much is a 1934 suspense film directed by Alfred Hitchcock and released by Gaumont British. It was one of the most successful and critically acclaimed films of Hitchcock's British period.

Hitchcock remade the film in 1956 for Paramount Pictures, the only such work he would revisit.

The Man Who Knew Too Much (1956 film) (Wikipedia.org)

The Man Who Knew Too Much is a 1956 suspense film directed by Alfred Hitchcock, starring James Stewart and Doris Day. It is a remake in widescreen VistaVision and Technicolor of Hitchcock's 1934 film of the same name. In the newer version, one of the most financially successful films of its year of release, Brenda De Banzie and Bernard Miles play an apparently benign British married couple, Christopher Olsen plays the son of Day and Stewart, and Reggie Nalder and Daniel Gélin are featured as assassins.

In the book-length interview, Hitchcock/Truffaut (1967), Hitchcock told fellow filmmaker François Truffaut that he considered his 1956 remake to be superior, saying that the 1934 version was the work of a talented amateur, the 1956 version the work of a professional.

The film won an Academy Award for Best Song for "Whatever Will Be, Will Be (Que Sera, Sera)," sung by Doris Day at several points in the action.
