Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense; themes: military discipline, hierarchical authority; style notes: static medium shots, high-contrast lighting, symmetrical framing of ship structures

A group of sailors in white hats stands on the deck and gangway of a ship; one officer in a dark uniform and white hat emerges from a doorway. The scene is shot in black and white with high-contrast lighting, showing metal railings and ship structures.

The record

A Soviet work restored in the US in 1996 under the Uruguay Round Agreements Act for a term that ran to 1 January 2021. Public domain now; it was not between 1996 and 2020. The registry does not yet model restoration. 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.
