One of the most controversial movies of its time. The Outlaw features a sizzling performance by 22-year old Jane Russell.

- Notes

The tale begins with law-enforcer Pat Garrett's (Thomas Mitchell) ruse to trap and cage legendary outlaw Billy the Kid (Jack Beutel). But Billy is wise to the lawman's scheme and lies low at pal Doc Holliday's ranch. Trouble soon begins to brew, however, when The Kid falls for Doc's lover Rio (Jane Russell). Although Billy is responsible for the death of Rio's brother, she returns the desperado's affection, and the two marry on the sly. But the betrothed couple have a volatile relationship, and as the trio runs from Garrett and his gang of lawmen, the group quarrels amongst themselves - making it difficult to escape.
