Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Outrage is a 1964 film directed by Martin Ritt, starring Paul Newman, Laurence Harvey, Claire Bloom, and Edward G. Robinson. It's an easy film to describe: it's basically Rashomon, remade as The Western.In this version, a preacher (William Shatner) and a prospector (Howard Da Silva) take shelter from a heavy rainstorm in a remote desert train depot, and discuss the bizarre trial they attended the day before. A traveling Con Man (Robinson) joins them, and they tell him the story.The notorious Mexican outlaw Juan Carrasco (Newman) ambushed a former Confederate colonel (Harvey), robbed him, and sexually assaulted his wife (Bloom), before the husband was killed. But Carrasco's testimony differs strongly from the wife's, and, via a Native American shaman (Paul Fix), the husband gets his own say. And it turns out that the prospector knows more about the whole affair than he's been letting on.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Considered an oddity when it was released, the film still has that reputation today. But there is some fascination in seeing Hollywood pros do their take own on a World Cinema classic, and James Wong Howe's Deliberately Monochrome cinematography gives a chilling look to the Arizona scenery.

Adaptational Villainy: While the commoner in Rashomon isn't revealed to have criminal tendencies until the climax, here he becomes a Con Man who's established upfront as a heel.

Brownface: Paul Newman darkened his hair and wore makeup to look more Mexican as Carrasco. This may have been one of the reasons the film is Deliberately Monochrome, to make it look more convincing. Veteran character actor Paul Fix (the son of German immigrants) plays the Native American elder, and also wears makeup.
