School for Scandal, A
- 1965 ----- b & w ----- 100 min ----- vhs
- A classic satire of the morals and manners of 18th century England centers on the adventures and romantic exploits of two brothers, Joseph and Charles Surface: the former is moral, upright and well-respected; the latter is a dissipated, extravagant libertine. Their wealthy uncle, whom they haven't seen for years, devises an elaborate scheme to test their true merits. His machinations occur in the midst of an already complex musical-chair love game, made even more complicated by the meddling of a group of malicious, hypocritically self-righteous gossips. (Intermittent minor static)
