School For Scoundrels (1960)
Endlessly finding himself on the wrong end of a situation, businessman Henry Palfrey (Ian Carmichael) seeks help at the College of Lifemanship run by the cunning Mr. Potter (Alastair Sim). An ideal pupil, it doesn't take long before Henry's picked up a few good tricks and sets out to show the world he's a winner. Taking aim at everyone who beat him in the past, he ultimately focuses on the ultra-charming bachelor (Terry-Thomas) who stole his girlfriend (Janette Scott). As he discovers revenge can be quite enjoyable, the much improved Henry will soon learn what it really means to be a success. This hilarious and witty British satire on self-improvement strategies is considered a comedy classic.
