Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense; themes: collective action, military discipline, individual emotion; style notes: high-contrast black-and-white, medium and close-up shots, dynamic composition with crowds and vertical rigging

A group of sailors is shown on the deck of a ship, with some climbing rigging and others gathered near large cannons. One sailor is shown in a close-up with an intense expression.

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.
