Scandalous is a 1984 British-American comedy film directed by Rob Cohen and starring Robert Hays, John Gielgud and Pamela Stephenson.
According to Cohen, "after acquiring the script, the company once again did me the favor of changing everything around and screwing everything up!
If you have an actor as distinguished as John Gielgud in your cast, you should at least give him some material that is worthy of his talent.
"[5] Cohen says that when he met Stephenson "she was wearing a leather mini-dress, her hair was spiked out two feet above her head, and I had a feeling she could radiate a sense of the outrageous.
"[4] The New York Times called it "a charmless caper movie that seems chiefly a pretext for the characters to keep changing their clothes.
