THE OUTLAW
Cinemavixion Review
Howard Hughes' 1943 western, 'The Outlaw,' is a film that arrived with considerable controversy and ultimately launched Jane Russell into stardom. While ostensibly a tale of the legendary figures Billy the Kid, Pat Garrett, and Doc Holliday, the film is most remembered for its portrayal of the character Rio McDonald, played by Russell. Hughes' extensive search for an actress to embody Rio culminated in Russell's feature film debut. The production faced significant hurdles, with its nationwide release delayed until 1946. Despite the controversies and delays, the film proved to be a commercial success, solidifying Hughes' vision and cementing Russell's status as a Hollywood icon. Russell herself famously debunked the myth surrounding a specially designed bra supposedly created by Hughes to enhance her appearance, stating she never wore it.
