The Last Outlaw (1927 film)


The Last Outlaw is a 1927 American Western silent film directed by Arthur Rosson and starring Gary Cooper, Jack Luden, and Betty Jewel. Written by John Stone and J. Walter Rubin, based on a story by Richard Allen Gates, the film is about a frontiersman who falls in love with a pretty woman whose brother is accused of murder. He tries to prove the young man innocent of the charges, but when he is appointed sheriff, he is obliged to track down and arrest the boy. A 16mm reduction positive print exists of this film.

Soon after, Ward is deliberately shot by one of Wagners accomplices, and Buddy returns the dying man to his sister. Thinking that Buddy shot him, she resents the new lawman. Later, Janet leads the other ranchers and steals back their cattle. At Chicks insistence, Janet discusses the situation with Buddy, who is convinced of Wagners guilt. In an ensuing showdown, Butch and Wagner are killed in a cattle stampede, while Janet is saved by Buddy, who is then made mayor of Steer City.
