    "While Scandal is point-blank a hardhitting examination of society's petty fetish with what is scandalous and what is discovered with other people's private lives, the film is much more a humanistic tale of redemption rather than a socially conscious melodrama.''Francis Cruzhttp://oggsmoggs.blogspot.com/2006/07/scandal-1950.html

    "Like all Kurosawa films, Scandal is motivated by considerations of humanity and justice, but rarely has the director been so witty or even as subversive as the movie must have seemed to thinking Japanese in 1950." Vincent Canby,The New York Times http://movies.nytimes.com/movie/review?res=9D07E6D71238F935A1575BC0A966948260
