A man in a suit and hat stands in an office while another man sits at a desk; a third man in uniform is visible in the background. The transcript indicates a discussion about a wounded man named Pepe Limoco and instructions to wire a report to Paris.
“narrowly missed capturing Pepe Limoco. He was evidently wounded while escaping. In fact, his injuries may prove fatal.” 24:22 · “Why don't you just declare him dead and be done with it?” 24:22 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.
