Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense; themes: authority, naval discipline; style notes: high-contrast black-and-white, medium shot followed by close-up, dramatic lighting emphasizing facial expression and props

Two men in naval uniforms are on a ship's deck; one gestures while the other looks on. A close-up shows a man in uniform holding a pipe near heavy chains.

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.
