Musical film directed by Alfred Hitchcock, also known as Strauss' Great Waltz.

Schani, Johan Strauss Jr., is forced by his father to forget music and to work in a bakery. Here he falls in love with Resi. The girl gets very jealous when a rich and beautiful contessa asks Schani to write a waltz for her. Schani writes and plays it, but he is always loyal to his girlfriend.

(Hitchcock told François Truffaut that this film was the lowest ebb of his career. He only agreed to make it because he had no other film projects that year, and wanted to stay working. He never again made a musical film).

Director:
Alfred Hitchcock
Writers:
Guy Bolton (play), Heinz Reichert (play)
Stars:
Edmund Gwenn, Esmond Knight and Jessie Matthews
