 Rating:  - A Town Like Alice - Simply FabulousI loved this series, when I first watched in on television back in the '80s. Every couple of years I pull the tape off the shelf and re-watch it.

I loved it, and as I have recently reading about WWII interment camps, i decided to try to find this. It is just as good as I remember, and I still admire the main character Jean, and still have a crush on Joe. Yes and I cried. It really isnt dated or cheesy, it was very well made I think. Rating: - I Treasure A Town Like AliceAt least once a year I watch this excellent production of A Town Like Alice. This is one of those magical adaptations where the actors cease to be performers and become real people who transport you to and immerse you in their world.
