   John Hurt manages to pull a sympathetic character out of the doctor's unsavory reputation, and freshman director Michael Caton-Jones recreates (with pitch-perfect sleaze) the boozy, lascivious mood of early '60s sex and politics.

   Is 'scandal' a good movie?

   • Call it a hindsight view of British history, an unnecessarily controversial film about the uses of sex, or a perverse love story -- any of the descriptions will fit Scandal. A well made but emotionally unengaging look at one of the most famous sex scandals of 20th century Britain. Hurt is excellent as the charming but shallow Ward.
