Review

In 1963, England’s Minister of War John Profumo was caught dipping his wick into 16-year-old prostitute Christine Keeler--which was only made more sensational by Christine’s liaisons with various criminals and a Russian spy. The resulting sex scandal is recounted in the acclaimed film Scandal (1989), with Ian McKellan as Profumo and Joanne Whalley making her first big splash as Keeler. Bridget Fonda, meanwhile, will prompt a splash in your pants as fellow scandalous gal Mandy Rice-Davies. And you’ll feel merry about Olde England when you check out Britt Ekland as an aging party girl.
