Two men discuss a plan to lure Pepe into town by using a letter from Pierre's mother, intending to arrest Pierre secretly. One man, in a suit, speaks while the other, in a cap and jacket, reacts with expressions of surprise and amusement.
“Huh? Oh. Pepe's too clever to fall into a trap. But some of his friends are not so clever.” 25:22 · “And he'll come down into the town to find him. You overlook just one little point. How do you get Piero to come down?” 25:35 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.
