 This so-called holiday season is proving to be anything but for us here at KM UK 😕 Busy, busy, busy.
Last week it was the first look at a promotional photo from The Sweeter Side Of Life along with the announcement of the première date.
This week it’s the first trailer.
Spoiler Alert. It’s a given that a trailer for a film will divulge certain details, but in this case a warning is definitely warranted. If you wish to keep a little mystery in your relationship with this movie you should probably not watch the video. It is, metaphorically at least, putting-out on the first date. Until the full film is released we won’t know for sure but the whole plot appears to have been encapsulated in just under 3 minutes of footage. Don’t come crying to us if you regret watching it. We’d expect the trailer that appears on TV prior to the broadcast to be less… comprehensive.
 Anyway, The Sweeter Side Of Life looks like far more of a comedy than KM UK thought it would and could be far more entertaining than we feared. Kathryn gets to do a bit of slapstick comedy and is covering a lot of other character traits. We’re not sure we’ve ever seen so many hairstyles on one person in such a short space of time. Plus, the blue dress from the promo photo makes an appearance 😀 How many looks? 
Roll on January 19th.
The video is now available in the Gallery along with some screencaps from it. Enjoy. Let us know what you think. Does it make you want to see the film or not?
 In classic panto fashion: She’s Behind You!
Director/co-writer/co-producer on The Sweeter Side Of Life, Michael Damian, sent a Tweet this morning (UK time, 12 December 2012) with the above photo. He was mixing the audio for the film in LA.
As you can see, the screen behind Michael is playing the movie and we can Kathryn in a scene in the bakery. The t-shirt she is wearing is the one we saw in a previous on set photo.
The photo is now in the Gallery.
Many thanks to Michael for sharing this with everyone.
 The Hallmark Channel has issued a press release announcing the forthcoming début of the movie The Sweeter Side Of Life.
As predicted in the earlier post it will be first broadcast in January of 2013. Now we know that it will the 19th, which is a Saturday, to be precise.
As you can see on the right Hallmark also issued a small promotional photo of Kathryn as her character Desiree Harper posing with a slice of cake. As if the picture needs any more sweetness 😀
The photo is in the Gallery and you can read the press release in full below.
We’ll bring you more on this when we get it.
Many thanks to LK for the heads-up.
Update (18 December 2012): Photo replaced by larger version.

‘COLD CASE’ STAR KATHRYN MORRIS GOES FROM PAMPERED TO PASTRIES IN ‘THE SWEETER SIDE OF LIFE,’ A HALLMARK CHANNEL ORIGINAL MOVIE WORLD PREMIERE JANUARY 19
Kathryn Morris (“Cold Case”) stars as a Manhattan housewife who gets an unexpected reality check in “The Sweeter Side of Life,” a Hallmark Channel Original Movie World Premiere Saturday, January 19 (9p.m. ET/PT, 8C). Morris stars with James Best (“The Dukes of Hazzard”), Alastair MacKenzie (“Monarch of the Glen”), Steve Varnom (“Broadside”) and Sam Douglas (“Snatch”) as a New York City socialite who loses everything after she’s dumped by her wealthy husband and is forced to redefine herself at her father’s struggling New Jersey bakery.
In “The Sweeter Side of Life,” Morris plays Desiree Harper, whose perfect life as the wife of a high-powered Manhattan doctor comes to a sudden end when her husband says he wants a divorce and invokes their ironclad pre-nup to leave her penniless. Desiree soon finds herself abandoned by her rich friends and back in her New Jersey hometown helping her father in his struggling bakery. Though Desiree wants nothing more than to return to her high-class life, spending time with her father causes her to see things differently. She rediscovers her love of baking and puts her business degree to work to save her father’s shop. Desiree’s success at the bakery leads to an unexpected opportunity which forces her to choose between what she has lost and the new life she has found.
“The Sweeter Side of Life” is a Motion Picture Corporation of America production. Brad Krevoy, Francisco Gonzalez and Reuben Liber are executive producers. Michael Damian and Janeen Damian are producers. Michael Damian directed from the script he co-wrote with Janeen Damian.
Hallmark Channel, owned and operated by Crown Media Holdings, Inc., is a 24-hour basic cable network that provides a diverse slate of high-quality entertainment programming available in high definition (HD) and standard definition (SD) to a national audience of nearly 87 million subscribers. Hallmark Channel is the nation’s leading destination for quality family programming with an ambitious slate of original TV movies and specials, as well as some of television’s most beloved sitcoms and series, including The Golden Girls, Frasier, Little House on the Prairie, and The Waltons. The channel is also home to a diverse range of lifestyle programming, including the newly-launched Home & Family, a daily two-hour live show shot in a fully functional house located on the Universal Studios lot and Marie, a one-hour talk show hosted by iconic entertainer, Marie Osmond. Hallmark Channel’s sibling network, Hallmark Movie Channel, also available in HD and SD, focuses on family-friendly movies with a mix of classic theatrical films, presentations from the acclaimed Hallmark Hall of Fame library, original Hallmark Channel movies, and special events.
 Recently Michael Damien, co-writer/producer/director of Kathryn’s upcoming movie The Sweeter Side Of Life, has made several references to the film’s soundtrack.
It seems that the soundtrack could be released alongside the film and that Michael himself will be singing on it. He has recorded a song called Rock My Heart. As well as acting in the long-running soap opera The Young And The Restless Michael has had a lot of success as a singer. He is most associated with a cover of the David Essex song Rock On, later covered by Def Leppard amongst others.
Earlier today (UK time) composer/musician/singer/producer (does no one have just one job title these days?) John Khula released a different track made for The Sweeter Side Of Life.
The song is called Love Is Dancin’ and can be heard on the Reverbnation website. It’s a 3 minute long up-beat ditty, much as you would expect from such a film. Let us know what you think in the comments below.
One other piece of information to come from this is that the film could well be set for a January 2013 release.
The Sweeter Side Of Life stars Kathryn as Desiree, a newly divorced woman who returns penniless to her home town and starts working in her father’s bakery. James Best (The Dukes Of Hazzard) co-stars.
 Later today (1st November 2012) The Sweeter Side Of Life (née Confections Of A Discarded Woman) will be screened for what could very well be the first time.
Don’t go rushing to your local “World Of Cine” or switching on the TV and tuning to one of the various Hallmark Channels though. This screening is for a select group of people, and would be very expensive to attend.
The American Film Market (AFM) is an annual trade event running for eight days in early November in Santa Monica, California.
 Attendees of the AFM are film buyers from all over the world that go to the event to decide on films to purchase for broadcast or distribution in their home nation. Over 400 films will be seen in nearly 600 individual screenings during the week-and-a-day long bash.
These viewings are not open to the public just paying members of the industry. Even a single day pass costs a couple of hundred Dollars. Staying for the whole week will set you back several thousand.
None of the cast of The Sweeter Side Of Life are expected to attend the AFM screening. It is also unlikely we’ll hear any news resulting from the AFM but we felt it was worth mentioning as an insight into the way the film and TV industry works.
