Curiosidades
When asked about her nude scenes, Phylis Davis said "I was modeling in New York and making more money doing that, but I came out to test for another part and wound up with SWEET SUGAR. I had signed a 'no frontal nudity' agreement and when I got to Costa Rica, all of a sudden I had to go nude. So I called the union and said I refused, and they said I'd get sued. They weren't helpful at all, I always remember that. I had to hire a lawyer, myself, and I was only making scale starring in this film. He went down there, so I wouldn't have to do full-frontal nudity."

Pifias
When Dolores steals one of the overseers' (Rick's) gun while distracting him by pretending to be interested in him (well before the inmates try to escape), the overseer never discovers that his gun is gone & never reports that it has been stolen/lost.

Citas
Dr. John: [in a bubble bath] As you can see, I appreciate beauty. I like to surround myself with it.
[standing and washing off the soap]
Dr. John: I also know the secrets to undreamed of pleasures.
Sugar: You're a nice looking man, doctor,
[looking at him below the waist]
Sugar: well formed.
Dr. John: Ah!... You're a perceptive woman, Sugar. You must be aware why I asked you here.
Sugar: Oh, I had a hint.
Dr. John: No doubt a woman of your «capacity» can fully enjoy what I have to offer her.
Sugar: Thanks, but I'm not interested.
Dr. John: So I see you don't understand how far my proposal extends.
[uses a towel, leaving his front uncovered]
Sugar: [looking down again] Oh, I can see how far it extends...
Dr. John: There's more to it than meets the eye!
Sugar: Doctor! I've been around a lot of men who turned me off, but you're the first man I met that makes my skin crawl.
Dr. John: [shouting] Wolfgang! Take this girl out of here!

Créditos adicionales

Alternate version credited as "A Sinclair1420 Production [Movie Remix]" completely replaces the music & background audio during the opening theme song, the bath/love scene, the end credits & end MGM logo. Original music is replaced with music from Mary J. Blige "Keep Your Head", Bobby Brown "Roni" & The Temptations "Treat Her Like a Lady". End credits are extended with repeated opening credits to fit the replacement music.

DOCTOR JOHN IS INDESTRUCTABLE! AH-HAHAHA!

One of a slew of Women In Prison (WIP) exploitation flicks hurriedly lensed after Jack Hill's hugely successful "The Big Doll House" mopped up at the box office for Roger Corman. This one's fairly typical of the subgenre, delivering the WIP formula of nudity and sadism in well measured doses.

It's only notable features are an early writing effort by Stephanie "Terminal Island" Rothman and a truly over-the-top performance by Angus Duncan. He plays Dr. John, the demented warden of the sugar cane plantation to which Phyllis Davis is sentenced, with a hammy verve rarely seen today.

Also slightly notable is the 'cat tossing' scene which, IMOHO, wins the all-time award for "Worst Abuse of an Animal to Set Up A Stupid Visual Pun." Otherwise, "Sweet Sugar" is pretty much every WIP flick you've ever seen.
