The Adorable Outcast is a 1928 Australian silent film directed by Norman Dawn about an adventurer who romances an island girl. The script was based on Beatrice Grimshaw's novel Conn of the Coral Seas.[2] It was one of the most expensive films made in Australia until that time, and was Dawn's follow up to For the Term of His Natural Life (1927).[3] It did not perform as well at the box office and helped cause Australasian Films to abandon feature film production.
