The Man Who Knew Too Much

The Lawrences are vacationing in Switzerland when a secret-agent friend is mortally wounded. Before dying, he utters some cryptic words revealing a planned assassination in London, and things only get worse when the couple's daughter is kidnapped. With little police help, the parents take matters into their own hands. Alfred Hitchcock's black-and-white classic was later remade in color, starring Jimmy Stewart and Doris Day.
