What happens

Outrage is a 1950 black-and-white crime-drama film directed by Ida Lupino, who also cowrote the script along with the producers Malvin Wald and Collier Young. It stars Mala Powers in her first leading role. Outrage is the third film produced by Lupino and Young's independent The Filmakers Inc. Initially receiving mixed reviews, it has been critically reevaluated over the years. In 2020, Outrage was selected for preservation in the National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally historically or aesthetically significant". (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
