The Outsider is a 1931 British drama film directed by Harry Lachman and featuring performances by Joan Barry, Harold Huth, and Norman McKinnel. The narrative centers on a nontraditional osteopath who successfully treats the daughter of another physician. Created at Elstree Studios, this film adapts Dorothy Brandon's 1923 theatrical work The Outsider, which had been previously transformed into a 1926 American silent movie. The production’s visual environment was crafted by set designer Wilfred Arnold.
In 1931, Harold Huth received acclaim for delivering the finest performance in a British picture. A subsequent remake appeared in 1939 under the same title, The Outsider, starring George Sanders and Mary Maguire.
