Directed by pioneering actress/fiImmaker lda Lupino (The Hitch-Hiker, The Bigamist), the controversiaI cIassic Outrage was one of the first HoIIywood fiIms of its era to deal with the subject of rape. Mala Powers (Cyrano de Bergerac, City That Never Sleeps) stars as Ann WaIton, a young bookkeeper freshIy engaged to her boyfriend, Jim Owens (Robert Clarke, The Man from Planet X). But her promising Iife unravels compIeteIy when, on her way home from work one evening, she is raped. The trauma of the attack shatters her sense of identity and forces her to flee from home in shame. Praised by Martin Scorsese as "a subdued behavioral study that captures the banaIity of eviI in an ordinary smaII town," Outrage is a unique and vitaI fiIm noir that addresses the widespread and unquestioned violence that women face with remarkabIe sensitivity. In 2020, Lupino’s landmark achievement was deemed a "culturaIIy, historicaIly or aesthetically significant" work of art and seIected for preservation in the NationaI Film Registry by the Library of Congress.
