Only Two Can Play

Welsh wanna-be lothario and librarian Lewis (Peter Sellers) at work, with client Hyman (noted Sellers pal Graham Stark), then meeting Mrs. Gruffydd-Williams (Mai Zetterling), who takes an interest, in Only Two Can Play, 1962, from the Martin Amis novel.

Literary opening, shot in Swansea, Wales, the very town author Kingsley Amis renamed "Aberdarcy" for his novel, Peter Sellers introduced, plus comic references to E.B. White and James Thurber, and a real citation from Emerson, from Only Two Can Play, 1962, directed by Sidney Gilliat.

Very kitchen-sinky business, Welsh librarian Lewis (Peter Sellers) at home with wife Jean (Virginia Maskell) and (uncredited) kids, early in director Sidney Gilliat's Only Two Can Play, 1962, from Bryan Forbes' screenplay and Martin Amis' novel.
