Beautiful, embittered Lili (Phoebe Cates) has clawed her way from porno princess to international film idol. She has money, fame, everything she wants -- everything except revenge. Abandoned as a baby, Lili is determined to find, and destroy, her long-lost mother. She's narrowed the candidate list down to three former boarding-school friends, all of whom have gone on to exciting and privileged lives. And one of whom is about to be very, very sorry she left little Lili all those years ago. A starry cast sweeps through two and a half decades of exquisite excess in this high-fashion, high-drama, utterly delicious emotional wallow based on Shirley Conran's bestseller. Sharpen your claws.

Title: Ah, the 80s...
Review: I remember watching this mini-series when I was fifteen with my late mother. We really enjoyed it, and decades, I later found it on Amazon.A mini-series filled with castles, mansions, European nobles, Middle-Eastern royalty, great locations, and fantastic actors. I loved the 1980s: the fashion, the clothes, and, most of all, the hopes for a bright future which has all but evaporated now. The world was a nicer place in the 1980s, and shows like this--a bit campy but fun--made for great television.Political correctness has wrecked modern entertianment. Television now consists of tiresome and tedious lecturing.They don't make mini-series like this anymore.

Title: No complaints
Review: The dvd arrived on time, packaged well, no damage, and brand new. There were 2 dvds in the case. They played fine in the DVD player. I love this miniseries and was super happy to finally be able to see it again after so many years.

Title: Childhood Memories
Review: It had been years since I watched Lace as a little girl with my mother. I've always remembered this film and had been searching for it a few years now. I was extremely thrilled when I found it on Amazon that I quickly grabbed the phone and called my mom to tell her I had ordered it and should be receiving it within a few days. She was even more excited than I was. We ended up watching it on a Friday night curled up on the sofa eating popcorn and laughing at some of the outfits. It's a great movie, and though we thoroughly enjoyed watching it, the story felt incomplete without the 2nd part. So needless to say we'll be having another movie night at my house soon with Lace - Part 2.

Title: Love this Mini Series!!!!
Review: I have been waiting for years for "Lace" to be released on DVD; hooray!!! This DVD set for the TV Mini-Series "Lace" is wonderful! Even though this DVD has not been digitally remastered the picture is very clear. The sound is also very clear with no distortion. I am really pleased that this version of "Lace" is complete with no editing. Every scene is complete and presented as I remember when this Mini-Series first aired in the 1980's. If you are a fan of "Lace" I would strongly recommend purchasing this DVD set while it is available. Hopefully other TV Mini-Series will be released on DVD sets. I would love to see "Hollywood Wives" with Suzanne Somers and Stephanie Powers released in DVD form!

Title: They don't make movies like this anymore
Review: I was only 4 or 5 when I first saw this, and I have been waiting for years for this to come out on DVD! Perfect combination of '80s wealth, excess, and drama. It keeps you guessing until the end. This is definitely a look-forward-to movie. Get all of your work out of the way, put on some comfortable pajamas, and set aside a Friday evening or Saturday afternoon to become entranced. It's several hours long. And once you find out who Lili's mom is, of course, you'll want to find out who her dad is, and you can do it all over again the next weekend!

Review: Je suis certaine que dans la description il était indiqué que le film était en français et en fait il est en anglais et même pas sous titré... Je ne l'ai pas renvoyé mais il ne me sert à rien

Review: Utterly compelling viewing and excellent production.I saw this mini series on its premier release on UK TV in the 80s. Since then I had been looking for the professional print video. As Betamax and VHS were phased out I was wondering if it was ever transferred to dvd. And here it is, on WB Archive.It was stunning then as now, some 30+ years later.Presented on 2 discs, the screen ratio is of the original TV release, though my multi player doesn't have that squarish adjustment, it played well, though perhaps a little grainy. The sound quality and editing is excellent.This is probably one of the most memorable mini series out of the mid-late 80s I have ever seen.The story is strong and well scripted. The acting from all is 1st class and characters are portrayed with depth, fortitude and well highlighted with unique querkiness, as expected, based on their backgrounds.Though the social perspectives of the day, show their age and ignorance towards "others", it holds strong as an overall circumstancialy driven story.Phoebe Cates is stunning and viciously angry as the dejected child of a one night stand, by one of three young women, she is now grown up and seeking out her real mother. How her career didn't grow into a full blown TV/cinematic star from the 2 Lace stories, I will never fully understand.Great moments from Angela Lansbury and a cameo from Anthony Quayle.Adding to this fabulous story is the unforgettable and beautiful music by Nick Becât. This really flavoured the story in all its dramatic glory and emotional facets; a soundtrack that has been missing from commercial release since then. However, it can now be obtained directly from the composer via his website: nickbecat.comLace is a standout production with its overall design, costumes, strong human story spanning several eras and music that rivals all of the other big budget series of the day.So glad I now have this long awaited gem.

Review: Schon seit 1987 war ich auf der Suche nach einer Video-Version von "LACE" bzw. der deutschen Ãbersetzung "Blutsbande". Eine Mini-Serie, die 1986/1987 im TV lief, und die ich nie vergessen habe.Seit 1997 habe ich das Internet abgesucht, Sender angeschrieben und wurde dann endlich hier im vergangenen Jahr fündig und kaufte das Doppel-Video.Natürlich muss man sagen, dass das Buch zum Film - aufgrund der im Film eher etwas bedeckt gehaltenen "erotischen Aspekte" - noch besser ist und die englische Buchversion die doch deutlich gekürzte deutsche Version noch toppt.Aber - HEY - was tut man nicht alles, um nochmal in die Haut von Kate, Maxine, Pagan oder Judy zu schlüpfen und den "Schauer" der ersten Liebe wieder zu erleben.Somit ist das Video eine schöne Ergänzung zu den Büchern "Blutsbande" und "LACE".Ob auch das Buch "LACE2" verfilmt wurde? ... Die Suche geht weiter, denn schlieÃlich hat auch Lilli erst als Erwachsene nach ihrer "vraie maman" suchen können.
