Jean and Bill are a married couple trying to scrape a living. Out of the blue they receive a telegram informing them Bill's long-lost uncle has died and left them his business—a cinema in the town of Sloughborough. Unfortunately they can't sell it for the fortune they hoped as they discover it is falling down and almost worthless.

Following his Oscar-winning musical Moulin Rogue, the great John Huston directed this adaptation of the Herman Melville classic.

Alfred Hitchcock remakes his own 1934 mystery thriller about an ordinary man (Jimmy Stewart) who learns of an assassination attempt, but is forced into silence when his son is kidnapped. Co-stars Doris Day as Stewart's wife.
