The Ups and Downs of a Handyman
Always Handy - the odd job man whose services are constantly in demand!
R 1976 · 100 min · ★ 4.3 · Comedy
A young handyman and his wife move to a small village and set up business. There, the handyman encounters numerous strange characters, including a local constable more inept than a squad car full of Keystone Kops; an elderly magistrate whose primary passion is spanking young women; a schoolmistress with a closetful of kinks; and more predatory housewives than the young man can handle.
