Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense; themes: military discipline, imminent action; style notes: high-contrast black and white, static medium shots, minimal lighting emphasizing shadows

A group of sailors is shown in a dimly lit ship interior; one sailor moves quickly past a railing while another stands near a table. A voice says 'Come on.'

“Come on.” 9:12 automatic transcript, may be wrong

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.
