Scandal

The film, being a historical drama about a major political scandal, primarily evokes Sadness and Melancholy due to the tragic downfall of individuals caught in the public eye. Empathy is high as viewers witness the personal toll on the characters, particularly Christine Keeler and Stephen Ward. Anxiety builds as the scandal unfolds and consequences become imminent, while Anger and Disgust are directed at the hypocrisy and moral failings of the establishment and the destructive nature of public exposure. Curiosity and Nostalgia are also present, drawing viewers into the historical context of 1960s Britain and the unfolding events.
