Geliebter Spinner (1963)
Der junge Billy Fisher arbeitet im Büro eines Bestattungsunternehmers und flüchtet sich in seinen Tagträumen in eine Phantasiewelt, in der er über ein ganzes Land herrscht. Außerdem ist er ein unverbesserlicher Lügner, dem es gelingt, mit drei Frauen gleichzeitig verbandelt zu sein, von denen sich zwei auch als mit ihm verlobt betrachten. Als einzige seiner Freundinnen versteht Liz Billy wirklich und sieht wohlwollend über seine Schwächen hinweg. Sie ermutigt ihn, seine Träume zu realisieren und aus seinem bisherigen Leben auszubrechen.
