Recently it became clear that the film we’d got used to calling Confections Of A Discarded Woman had been renamed to The Sweeter Side Of Life.
Kathryn stars in the Hallmark Channel movie, due to be released next year, as a newly divorced trophy wife who finds herself working in the family home-town bakery to make ends meet.
Alongside reporting the news of the name change we ran a poll to canvas the opinion of you, our readers. Two weeks later and poll has now closed and the results are in.
Over 70% of those that took part agree with the new choice of name, preferring it over the original working title. Those that want to stick with Confections came to 21%. A pretty major landslide for the change then.
Thank you to all that took part.
Update: After posting this article I sent a Tweet to the film’s co-writer/directer Michael Damian to let him know that KM UK’s readership approve of the name change. His, possibly slightly tongue-in-cheek, response was:
For a week or so now IMDb has been showing the film Confections Of A Discarded Woman with the alternative title of The Sweeter Side Of Life. Depending on where you are in the world you may be seeing Sweeter… as the normal title with Confections… shown as the “original title.”
KM UK learnt more than a fortnight ago that The Sweeter Side Of Life was being considered as a new title but that the final decision was still to be made. Director and co-writer (with his wife) Michael Damian‘s appearance last night on the LA Talk Radio show The Sheena Metal Experience confirmed the new title, which makes it official enough for us to post about it and update across the site accordingly. Sweeter is the new confection.
Confections…/Sweeter… is a romcom about a newly divorced trophy wife (Desiree played by Kathryn) returning to her home town and working in the family bakery. It is a TV movie due for release sometime next year by Hallmark on one of their US channels.
Only a small amount of Michael’s 45 minute-long chat with host Sheena involved the movie, most of the discussion was about his return to the daytime soap opera The Young And The Restless, which is big news apparently.
You can listen to the whole broadcast via the The Sheena Metal Experience page on the LA Talk Radio website. You want the “Wednesday, September 26, 2012” entry. Michael appears from around the 1 hour mark and mentions the film, Kathryn and co-star James Best (The Dukes Of Hazzard) 30 minutes later.

Slowly, slowly, catchy monkey. Confections is proving to be a slow burner. One photo at time.
The above photo (see it in full in the Gallery) shows Kathryn and other cast members actually in the process of filming a scene. We’ve previously seen Kathryn wearing that outfit so it helps narrow down when happened. That and the date on the at the top of the image It was the 5th of June 2012.

As per the extra bit on the end the headline this is the 600th post on KM UK. The site is a few weeks short of 1200 days old so we are maintaining our average of a post every 2 days.
We should start this post by passing on our condolences to Michael Damian, writer/director/producer of Confections Of A Discarded Woman, as his father recently passed away. Our thoughts are with him and his family, which includes his wife and co-writer Janeen, seen on the left above.
We have an additional photo of Kathryn on the set of Confections with Michael (2nd from left) and other members of the cast and crew. It is now in the Gallery. With Kathryn’s outfit including an apron and there being other kitchen-y elements around them suggests that this is the set for the bakery that the film, in part at least, is based.
Director Michael Damian has let it be known via Twitter that filming on Confections Of A Discarded Woman has completed.
Based on previous information it was due to end on the 24th of June, though I don’t believe that today’s message necessarily contradicts that. Michael mentioned that he is now on a writers retreat in France so could have been there a couple of days.
In a short series of Tweets about the film Michael sent a few photos taken during the process. Only one of these appears to include Kathryn (see right), and even then I have my doubts. Check out the full-sized version in the Gallery and let us know what you think. Is that her on the very right of frame?
The fact that filming has wrapped is a good thing but now we have to wait a year to see the results
You can read more about the film and Kathryn’s role in it in earlier posts HERE and HERE. The film’s IMDb page continues to be updated (it is now listed as being in post-production) with an increasing cast list, most of them English actors.
Thanks to Michael for the information and allowing KM UK to share his photos.
