I didn't think it was for the money-I think he was taking care of everyone she directly had contact with in her spy network-the nanny and the jeweler.
shareI supppse he had to wait for the guy to come out or something. Maybe tried to get him to show him the broach as a distraction before shooting him. Hard to say.
shareThe guy he shot was an agent for nazi Germany.
He was either a traitor to Britain or an enemy agent,either way bang bang.
In real life the British authorities rounded up all the German spies and either turned them or shot them.
It seems that the Germans were not good at undercover stuff,bring German chocolate to Britain and trying to buy beer at 0600 in the morning for example.

No, they were part of the cell of German spies he took out. Didn't you hear what he said at the end?
He was part of the spy circuit. I did wonder whether he was gonna walk out with a fist full of jewelry. I liked that scene, I liked that it took a long time and had his wife worried, because she knew that jeweler was smart.
shareThe actual elapsed time was not that long. It just seemed that way because of the tension of the dramatic moment. When a radio goes to a minute of silence, have you ever noticed how long it seems?
shareThis Jeweller character totally threw me off. As I originally thought he was the 'spy catcher' from section V or whatever its called. He looked like the same guy wearing a disguise ie small beard and was getting involved in the operation to catch her. It did not seem logical he would have been her german handler, let alone for him to attend a party. I had to check in credits that they were not the same actor, which credits showed they were 2 actors. Totally threw me off.
shareYa I thought that too!! They murdered that poor old jewelry guy to steal his money... Signed no one except the OP
shareThis is one of the scenes which I like most because of the suspense. Max spends a " long " time in the shop and watching Marianne being so nervous makes us all nervous because we don´t know what is happening inside. But then Max leaves the shop and later he explains that they were members of the cell and that they were dead, he had killed both of them. Nice scene
shareYou're an IDIOT, he and the baby sitter were German spies. Maybe you should stick to Transformer movies
shareThis movie really wasn't that complicated guys. The guy was obviously a German. It was supposed to be obvious. Sheesh.
