"Sins" is a perfect example of classy trash. Starring then TV queen Joan Collins, this slickly produced sudser features an incredible all-star cast, a deliciously implausible story, exotic and beautiful locations, and a record 85 costumes changes for Joan. Carly Simon sings the theme song.

Although the discs are oddly edited into 7 "episodes" (why not just show it in the 3 parts it was originally broadcast in?), the DVD is reasonable (although the "extras" are rather lacklustre).

Snap it up before it is deleted.

Sins:
Great package with three DVD's including 7 episodes from the acclaimed TV mini series. The only minus is the awful transfer, it seems that the movie was taken from some old VHS. Many flaws, pixelization apparent most of the time. They should be ashamed of releasing such a movie with this terrible sound and Video quality.
Lavish production sets & filming locations (New York City, Paris, Venice, Italy). Joan Collins changes 85 costumes (by Valentino). This set a record for most costume changes in one production. Francis Lai takes charge of the soundtrack. Title song performed by Carly Simon, "It's hard to be tender".
There are enough stars for 10 movies. Joan Collins, Timothy Dalton, Marisa Beresnson, Gene Kelly, Joseph Bologna, Jean-Piere Aumont, James Farentino, Giancarlo Giannini, Steven Berkoff, Paul Freeman, French chanteuse Regine... and the list goes and goes.
