Another "What was this movie?" thread.
I saw the movie as a child on TV around 1968 to 1970 and it just confused me. It was color.
The movie may have been a romantic farce or a straight romance. I only remember two scenes. First, the young couple argue about how to say "I love you" with a car horn: either with one honk for each word or with one honk for each letter. (I honk L honk O honk V honk E honk ...). Second, the man insists that his girlfriend put on a full body stocking before going out and then he jabs a thorn into her toe. The idea is to go to the doctor and have her get fully undressed for him to just look at her toe. It doesn't work: the doctor tells them it was just a little pinprick and dismisses them.
The movie might have been European and dubbed into English, but the spelling scene makes that unlikely.

It's got to be either Good Burger or Zabriskie Point.

Well, love is the international language. Sounds a lot like a movie with Kenan Thompson from the late 90s but I can't quite think of the name... Good something or other...

I have the LP of Zabriskie Point, so it's not that. I would have remembered psychedelic windmills.
Good Burger sounds like an excellent movie. Wasn't there a Criterion Edition?

Sorry I can't actually provide real help.
