what's good for the goose (1969)

aka Girl Trouble. What's Good for the Gander.
Norman Wisdom is a middle aged, stuck in a rut, banker who falls for Sally Geeson, a free spirited hippie chick, whilst in Southport. It's mostly played straight, but Norman can't help adding a few pratfalls along the way, and the Pretty Things even pop up to perform a couple of numbers.
A curio in so many ways, with some good points, but there's something disturbing about Norman sleeping with a girl who could be his daughter, whilst his wife and kids are oblivious at home.
