In this Australian drama aimed at the Enchanted April crowd, viewers will find a verbose soap opera with a master's degree. Three sisters reunite after one of them publishes an autobiographical novel; fortunately, there's plenty of juice in between speeches on culture, loyalty, and the Booker Prize. Burdened by the stiffness that afflicts most film adaptations of plays — as well as by the enunciations of Joan Plowright, who speaks as...if...you...were...a...small... child — Sorrento Beach will nonetheless appeal to one segment of the public (mostly women who love PBS too much), and to those people it will appeal greatly.
