Sugar

Zucchero, miele e peperoncino (released internationally as Sugar, Honey and Pepper) is a 1980 Italian comedy directed by Sergio Martino. Written by Castellano & Pipolo together with Giuseppe Moccia, the film brings together a large ensemble of familiar faces from Italian popular comedy. The cast is headed by Lino Banfi, Edwige Fenech, Pippo Franco and Renato Pozzetto, with supporting turns by Dagmar Lassander, Glauco Onorato, Enzo Robutti, Sandro Ghiani and Gianfranco Barra, among others. Structured as an episodic romp, the picture draws on the staples of the era's Italian sex comedy: misunderstandings, romantic entanglements and farcical situations. Shot in Italian and running roughly 110 minutes, it premiered in 1980 and was distributed in some markets under alternative titles such as 3 X Mulher in Brazil. The film sits among the comedies Martino made alongside his better-known work in genre cinema.
