Games That Lovers Play (U.S. titles: Lady Chatterley Versus Fanny Hill and Lady Chatterley vs Fanny Hill) is a 1971 British softcore comedy film written and directed by Malcolm Leigh and starring Joanna Lumley, Penny Brahms and Richard Wattis.[1][2]
The US title and the names of the female lead characters reference the 1748 erotic novel Fanny Hill and D. H. Lawrence's 1928 novel Lady Chatterley's Lover, which had been the subject of a celebrated obscenity trial in 1960.[2] The film's plot is unrelated to either novel.[3]
