Watch: The Knack… and How to Get It 1965 123movies, Full Movie Online – Cool, sophisticated Tolen (Ray Brooks) has a monopoly on womanizing–with a long line of conquests to prove it–while naïve, awkward Colin (Michael Crawford) desperately wants a piece of it. But when Colin falls for an innocent country girl (Rita Tushingham), it’s not long before the self-assured Tolen moves in for the kill. Is all fair in love and war, or can Colin get the The Knack and beat Tolen at his own game?.
Plot: 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.

A 1960’s, Off-The-Wall Sex-Comedy
Attention, All You Carnally-Curious Viewers! – If you want the “knack” and seriously wanna know “how to get it” – Then steer clear of this quirky, off-the-wall, 1965, comedy – ‘Cause it’s sure to leave your head spinning, as you find yourself even more clueless than you already are.

If nothing else – “The Knack” (directed by American film-maker, Richard Lester) is (movie-wise) historically significant in that it is sandwiched in between 2 of Lester’s more notable pictures – “A Hard Day’s Night” and “Help!”, which, of course, starred the Beatles.

Even though “The Knack” (which was set in London and filmed in b&w) is a pretty silly and scatterbrained tale about the lustful pursuit for sexual conquests – It certainly did have its interesting and entertaining moments.

And, yes – With “The Knack” now being 52 years old – It is, indeed, dated – But still definitely worth a view. Yet – With that said – I do caution you, that its decidedly-eccentric brand of humour isn’t gonna appeal to everyone.

Made in-between Richard Lester’s two Beatles films
Made in-between Richard Lester’s two Beatles films, I loved this back in the day and am thrilled and much relieved to find I still love it. Loosely based upon the Anne Jellicoe, this is a marvellous non studio bound part of that mid 60s mini boom of British films that looked across the Channel rather than across the Atlantic. Having said that, this is a unique little saga that catches that certain moment in London (that became known as the swinging sixties) without any exaggeration. The dialogue is smart, perhaps a nod to Beckett and Pinter and the actors are perfect. Even Michael Crawford is restrained and the enigmatic Rita Tushingham at her sweetest. That Ray Brooks never really capitalised upon his wonderful performance here says more about the changing times than himself. From my first viewing I remembered the brass bed and the amazing white room. Also, of course, the stunning credit sequence with the identity girls in white queuing on the stairs for the favours of Brooks and to receive their medal for services rendered! Excellent.
