Sweet Talker is a 1991 comedy film starring Bryan Brown and Karen Allen.[https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1991-05-10-ca-1309-story.html Los Angeles Times review] accessed 16 November 2012 It was directed by Michael Jenkins who later described it as:

A real general audience film, a fairly gentle film about some relationships, almost father-son relationships, single mum relationship with her son. It's not what I would call a film that has major clout to it. It's an entertainment film, but what it says is not bad. It's a soft film - it doesn't really go out there pretending it's saying anything world-shattering... In this industry quite a few things are haphazard. Sweet Talker is one of the more haphazard projects that has come along.[http://www.signis.net/malone/tiki-index.php?page=Michael+Jenkins&PHPSESSID=a4d1f9bc88818f273074a2baf0a662c7 "Interview with Mike Jenkins", Signis, 25 March 1996] accessed 16 November 2012

The film's soundtrack, scored and performed by British singer/songwriter Richard Thompson was released by Capitol Records the same year the film was released.
