A woman pleads with a man in a dimly lit interior, asking him to resign and leave town; he responds that he is going to go. The setting includes a wall-mounted lamp and a window, suggesting a private room at night.
“You want to run this town with a gun in your hand. That's your life. You're bringing a fight on because it's fun.” 61:50 · “I'm running this town with my gun, Sherry, until I can turn it over to gentler people than any of us here.” 61:50 automatic transcript, may be wrong
The record
No renewal found An automated finding, not a verdict. A renewal would have appeared in the Copyright Office's renewal registrations 27 to 29 years after the term began. Those volumes are loaded and our parse of them found no matching renewal. If that is right, a work published 1931–1963 that was not renewed entered the public domain at the end of its 28th year; the volumes are OCR of old print, and the method page reports how often the parse has been found to miss one. Evidence dossier. The finding concerns the US copyright record for the film; it is not clearance for any use, and this page's annotation is machine output.
