Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense and anxious; themes: illness, concern, urgency, care; style notes: close-ups on faces convey urgency; low-key lighting and shadows create a somber, intimate atmosphere; medium shots establish spatial relationships around the bed

A man in a dark suit speaks urgently while another man lies ill in bed, attended by others. The dialogue expresses concern over his fever and delirium, with one speaker recalling a prior warning and suggesting a game to calm him.

“of piero weren't you oh i was i am fond of him word then you don't want to leave before he gets back you want to know why he's been detained don't you yes yes oh master the fever i'm worried about you he's burning up i'm afraid he'll sizzle before long” 46:20 · “Tell me you do. Last night I was the one who came to warn you. Yes, you were the one. Let me go.” 46:50 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.
