Featured review
Welcome to nostalgiaville!
Like others here I saw this as a kid in the 70s, enjoying the escapist story set in a picturesque island setting, though not realising it was filmed in corsica (took some years before i discovered that england really ain't that sunny - thanks Grasshopper Island!)Saw the DVD recently & was relieved to see the magic was still there: unthreatening lazy day adventures in an improbable world where no one is worried about 3 kids running away from home. Just wonderful. But would the story still cut it today with kids raised in a world of computer games, rap videos & cellphones? I think it would, given that the themes of Great Escape and Fun-Without-Grownups are still as popular as ever - just look at the Harry Potter series. A good show for nostalgic middle-agers to watch with their kids.
