Cattle Annie and Little Britches is a 1981 American Western film, starring: Burt Lancaster, John Savage, Rod Steiger, Diane Lane and Amanda Plummer, based on the lives of two adolescent girls in late 19th-century Oklahoma Territory, who became infatuated with the Western outlaws they had read about in Ned Buntline's stories, and left their homes to join the criminals.

The outlaws the girls find are the demoralized remnants of the "Doolin-Dalton gang", led by an historically inaccurately aged Bill Doolin.

When he talks to his gang, he uses the lithe movements and the rhythmic, courtly delivery that his Crimson Pirate had when he told his boys to gather round.

In his scenes with Diane Lane, the child actor who appeared in New York in several of Andrei Șerban's stage productions, and who single handedly made the film A Little Romance almost worth seeing, Lancaster has an easy tenderness that is never overdone.

The review criticizes the distanced visual style of director Lamont Johnson, and that as a result "the film washes over the viewer, with no images or moments sticking in the mind.
