A handsome, suave Toshiro Mifune lights up the screen as painter Ichiro, whose circumstantial meeting with a famous singer (Yoshiko Yamaguchi) is twisted by the tabloid press into a torrid affair. Ichiro files a lawsuit against the seedy gossip magazine, but his lawyer, Hiruta (Kurosawa stalwart Takashi Shimura), is playing both sides. A portrait of cultural moral decline, Scandal is also a compelling courtroom drama and a moving tale of human redemption.

Order in the Court was a syndicated radio drama that related fictional crimes as they were litigated in the courtroom. A nameless courtroom reporter open the show with some details, and the drama would begin as testimony and flashbacks. The series was targeted to a daytime audience, so it would often involve family tragedies, romances gone wrong, or other plotlines. The series was introduced to syndication in 1953.
