As someone who has always had a certain pleasure in discovering forgotten films or impaired compared to the other director’s work, I can be very biased, but can not take it with you always seemed like a pleasure for me. Now, the pleasures of this film can not be to the liking of the typical Capra fan, someone who likes the iconography and the reasons for thick, fast, strong and recognizable, so that anyone who really loves “Mr. Smith” you can not like this.

But anyone willing to approach this based on its own merits, this film is a beautiful, uplifting, often in contact and possibly inspiring just about enjoying your own life, and has some minor cultural references that are relevant for booting surprising (that ll know what I mean when you see it). At least, even if you do not reach, therefore, participation is very nice, fun, and Capra have enough issues to engage the casual fan.

I would recommend to people who loved the understated and the sense of Harvey heart rate, although the two films are quite different.

THE MAN WHO KNEW TOO MUCH is Hitchcock remake of his own 1934 film of the same title. While vacationing in French Morocco, a family becomes accidentally involved in a series of incidents after the father overhears an assassination.

1934 compared with its predecessor, this version is lavish, with a bigger budget and a much larger distribution. Hitchcock, while maintaining the fascination with an average Joe caught up in menacing events, the characters portrayed by Jimmy Stewart and Doris Day put a spin on the story that illustrates the sensitivity that the 1950s influenced the remake.

Ben McKenna (Stewart), a doctor and his family face in the middle of a murder while on holiday in Marrakech. When his son is kidnapped by the conspirators, McKenna must race against the clock to stop the killing and save the life of his son. Stewart, as expected, gives a seamless performance that the man lying in the midst of exceptional circumstances.

Day brings lightness to the proceedings and make the only musical number that never appear in a Hitchcock film: “Que Sera, Sera”, which will earn an Oscar and become a popular success.
