The Knack (And How To Get It) In Romance & Fashion - Here's Looking Like You, Kid

The Knack (And How To Get It) In Romance & Fashion - Here's Looking Like You, Kid | Kitsch | Scoop.it

The Knack… and How to Get It was a British film released in 1965 about the sexual revolution in swinging London-town, complete with a Greek chorus of disapproving members of society’s “older generation”. In the film, bookish teacher Colin (played by Michael Crawford) is frustrated by the womanizing ways of his housemate, Tolen (played by Ray Brooks).

 

The film opens with a series of mannequin-esque women in tight sweaters and short skirts, robotically waiting in line to get with Tolen.

Deanna Dahlsad's insight:

Could be called "It's A Mod Mod Mod World" ;)

Did you know…? 7-Up once contained Lithium. | Kitsch | Scoop.it
In October 1929, Grigg launched Bib-Label Lithiated Lemon-Lime Soda—but not just as a soft drink. The soda was actually a patent medicine marketed as a cure for a hangover, due to one of its main ingredients, lithium citrate.
