True Confections is a 1991 Canadian comedy-drama film written and directed by Gail Singer. Based on Sondra Gotlieb's Stephen Leacock Award-winning novel True Confections, it stars Leslie Hope as Verna Miller, a young Jewish woman growing up in the 1950s who rebels against the rigid gender role assigned to women in her era due to her ahead-of-her-time sensibilities and life aspirations.
