Stanley Kubrick's "2001: A Space Odyssey" is the greatest film that ever will be made and ever can be made. Gary Lockwood co-starred in it but, of course, the real star of that film was the film.
Lockwood was one of the two dry-as-dry-ice astronauts in "2001", the one who has an unfortunate EVA, thanks to HAL. I've seen very little of his other work, but here he is, doing comedy! And very well, too.
I guess "Love and the Doorknob" was a way to get a couple of young newlyweds to make a lot of suggestive "pull it out" comments and yet be able to insist to the censor that it is all completely innocent.
This was brave of him to do. Some actors would have turned down a role with so few lines.
