English Summary:
The Man Who Knew Too Much is a 1934 British thriller film directed by Alfred Hitchcock, featuring Peter Lorre, and released by Gaumont British. It was one of the most successful and critically acclaimed films of Hitchcock's British period.
Bob and Jill Lawrence (Leslie Banks and Edna Best) are a British couple on a trip to Switzerland, travelling with their daughter Betty (Nova Pilbeam). They have befriended Frenchman Louis Bernard (Pierre Fresnay), a skier, who is staying at their hotel. Jill is participating in a clay pigeon shooting contest. She reaches the final but loses to a male sharpshooter, Ramon (Frank Vosper), because at the crucial moment she is distracted by the noise of a chiming watch that belongs to Abbott (Peter Lorre).
That evening, Louis is fatally shot as Jill dances with him. Before he expires, he tells Jill where to find a note that is to be delivered to the British consul; she in turn tells Bob. Bob reads the note, which—it transpires—contains vital indications concerning a planned international crime.
Hungarian Summary:
Lawrence-ék a kislányukkal Svájcban nyaralnak, amikor véletlenül tanúi lesznek egy gyilkosságnak, sőt egy tervezett merénylet is a tudomásukra jut. Az angol ügynök halála előtt még át tud adni Mrs. Lawrence-nak egy üzenetet. Valaki ezt észreveszi és levelet ír Mrs. Lawrence-nek, amelyben követeli a hallgatását. Amikor a kislányukat elrabolják, úgy döntenek, maguk járnak utána a dolognak. Amikor Mr. Lawrence saját szakállára szeretné kiszabadítani a gyereket, ő maga is a bűnözők kezébe kerül.
