An absolutely stellar mini-series. Sidney Sheldon's books are a journey onto themselves and while the series stays close to the book, it is the extra parts of the screenplay that are a delight to watch. Madolyn Smith brings Tracy Whitney to life. She plays the part with remarkable ease and her accents are a hoot. Her character is intelligent and vulnerable at the same time. Her chemistry with Tom Berenger as Jeff Stevens is palpable. I loved the fact that all the characters are exactly as I had envisioned them. The screenplay is taut and dialogues are witty.
The book like the adaptation can be divided into two parts. The horrifying ordeal of the initially idealistic Tracy in jail is the first part. The second part is her eventual transformation into a con artist and her escapades- and what fun these are! Put it on your must-watch list ASAP!
