He notes that &#8220;at times it&#8217;s a sloppy film, poorly lit and edited in a manner that causes you to lose all track of time; but the characters are so likable and believably played&#8221; and &#8220;the direction and script&#8230; are so spirited and tender that you are willing to forgive it for not being as polished as a Hollywood production&#8221;. He lauds the film&#8217;s emphasis on eschewing conformity, and notes that the &#8220;picture shows that those who struggle to retain their &#8216;healthy brand of craziness&#8217; in our dehumanized world can have a lot of fun&#8221;. <\/p>\n<p>Peary specifically calls out Craig Russell&#8217;s &#8220;award-winning performance as Robin Turner, a character with great range&#8221; who is &#8220;kind-hearted, angry, witty, philosophical, moody, vulnerable to criticism, strong when he has to be, even heroic, extremely sarcastic, and harmlessly bitchy&#8221; &#8212; not to mention &#8220;dazzling&#8221; when he &#8220;does impersonations of Streisand, Channing, Garland, Bankhead, Davis, West, etc.&#8221; Indeed, the film is chock-a-block full of truly entertaining footage showing Russell doing what he does so well: we can easily understand why he expresses disdain and dismay early in the film when watching an amateur performer on stage, giving a bad name to his craft. Writer\/director Richard Benner&#8217;s script heads in unusual directions, keeping us on our toes about what will happen next, and occasionally surprising us &#8212; but Russell&#8217;s friendship with McLaren trumps all, and provides the film with heartwarming continuity.   <\/p>\n<p><strong>Note:<\/strong> This film is profiled at length in Peary&#8217;s original <em>Cult Movies<\/em> book. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Redeeming Qualities and Moments: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Craig Russell as Robin Turner (nominated by Peary as one of the Best Actors of the Year in his <em>Alternate Oscars<\/em>)<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Outrageous-Russell.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Outrageous-Russell.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"480\" height=\"360\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-34719\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Outrageous-Russell.png 480w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Outrageous-Russell-128x96.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Outrageous-Russell-300x225.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Outrageous-Russell2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Outrageous-Russell2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"480\" height=\"360\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-34720\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Outrageous-Russell2.png 480w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Outrageous-Russell2-128x96.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Outrageous-Russell2-300x225.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Hollis McLaren as Liza Connors<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Outrageous-McLaren.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Outrageous-McLaren.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"480\" height=\"360\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-34721\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Outrageous-McLaren.png 480w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Outrageous-McLaren-128x96.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Outrageous-McLaren-300x225.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>A refreshingly humane and compassionate view of mental illness: &#8220;You and me are here to love and look after each other.&#8221;<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Outrageous-Mental-Illness.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Outrageous-Mental-Illness.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"480\" height=\"360\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-34722\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Outrageous-Mental-Illness.png 480w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Outrageous-Mental-Illness-128x96.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Outrageous-Mental-Illness-300x225.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>An authentically feel-good script: &#8220;I&#8217;ve never known anyone worth knowing who wasn&#8217;t a positive fruitcake.&#8221;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Must See? <\/strong><br \/>\nYes, as an enjoyable cult favorite. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Categories<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Cult Movie<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Links: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0076513\/\">IMDb entry<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/1977\/08\/01\/archives\/outrageous-film-merely-insidious.html\">NY Times Original Review<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thespinningimage.co.uk\/cultfilms\/displaycultfilm.asp?reviewid=8007&#038;aff=13\">Spinning Image Review<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.dvdtalk.com\/reviews\/12187\/outrageous\/\">DVD Talk Review<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.timeout.com\/london\/film\/outrageous-1977\">Time Out Capsule Review<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;You&#8217;ll never be normal &#8212; but you&#8217;re special.
