## Synopsis

The Outlaw is a 1943 American Western film directed by Howard Hughes and starring Jack Buetel, Jane Russell, Thomas Mitchell and Walter Huston. Hughes produced the film, replacing original director Howard Hawks with himself, and replacing original cinematographer Lucien Ballard with Gregg Toland. The film is Russell's breakthrough role to becoming a sex symbol and Hollywood movie star. Later advertising for the film billed Russell as the sole star. The Outlaw is an early example of a psychological Western.
