The Knack... and How to Get It
★ 6.0/10•1965•1h 25m•15•Comedy•Romance

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.
