Garner plays a photographer who brings his wife, Jenny, and teenage son, David, along on a Paris shoot, with both husband and wife struggling to stay faithful under extreme temptation. The film was written by Muriel Resnick (from her novel The Girl in the Turquoise Bikini), Garry Marshall, and Jerry Belson, and directed by Jerry Paris. Jimmy Webb wrote the title song, and Patrick Williams scored the sound track. How Sweet It Is! was the first production for National General Pictures. The title is taken from a television catchphrase popularized in the 1960s by comedian Jackie Gleason. Upon its release in August 1968, the film received a mixed response with critics and audiences. According to Howard Thompson of The New York Times, "This tired, aimlessly frisky comedy ... is about as sweet as a dill pickle." LESS
