The Knack... and How to Get It
1965 · 1h 25m · Comedy, Romance · United Kingdom · Rated 15 (GB)
Some have it, some don't.
A nebbish schoolteacher begs his smooth (and misogynistic) pal to teach him 'the knack' – how to score with women. Serendipitously, the men meet up with a new girl in town, as well as a friendly lunatic who can’t help but paint things white.
