What's Good For The Goose (1969)

British comedian Norman Wisdom stars as Timothy Bartlett, a boring middle-class banker whose life is a predictable routine. After the sudden death of his boss, Timothy is next in line to go to the banking conference being held in Southport. On the way down south, he reluctantly picks up a couple of young hitchhikers, Nikki (Sally Geeson) and Meg (Sarah Atkinson). However he can't get Nikki out of his mind and goes to all the local hip spots hoping to find her. Fortunately, he does run into her and her mod friends and quickly becomes part of the scene. During this midlife crisis he not only has an affair with the young nymph, but dons the hippie clothes and attitudes of the youth of the day. Nevertheless, it all must come to an end when the week is up and Timothy must return to his real life.
