The Knack... and How to Get It (1965)
Directed by Richard Lester
“Some have it, some don't.”
Comedy, Romance · 1h 25m
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.
