The Knack... and How to Get It
In Theaters
June 3, 1965
Runtime: 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.
