Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense, focused; themes: mechanical operation, military duty, individual within machine; style notes: high-contrast lighting, tight framing on hands and machinery, medium shots of operator

A sailor operates a ship's gun mechanism in a dimly lit interior. The sequence shows close-ups of hands manipulating levers and the sailor seated at the controls.

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.
