The Man Who Knew Too Much is a 1956 American suspense thriller film directed and produced by Alfred Hitchcock, starring James Stewart and Doris Day. The film is Hitchcock s second film using this title, following his own 1934 film of the same name but featuring a significantly different plot and script.

In the book-length interview Hitchcock/Truffaut (1967), in response to fellow filmmaker François Truffaut s assertion that aspects of the remake were by far superior, Hitchcock replied, Let s say the first version is the work of a talented amateur and the second was made by a professional.

The film won an Academy Award for Best Original Song for Que Sera, Sera (Whatever Will Be, Will Be) , sung by Doris Day. It premiered at the 1956 Cannes Film Festival on April 29.
