Director Michael Caton-Jones's treatment of the '60s sex scandal that nearly took down the British government is less a sleazy exposé than a righteous vindication of the case's two scapegoats: good-time girls Christine Keeler and Mandy Rice-Davies (played here with relish by Joanne Whalley-Kilmer and Bridget Fonda, respectively). But it's also a higly enjoyable two-hour nostalgia trip through swinging London, complete with miniskirts and imitation Beatles. Read the complete review for Scandal
