A man and a woman are in a convertible car; the man is driving and the woman is in the passenger seat. The transcript describes the man noticing the woman’s appearance and age, and her disheveled look.

“- How far are you going? - How far are you going?” 33:25 · “I surprised and I turned my head to look her over. She was facing straight ahead, so I couldn't see her eyes. But she was young, not more than 24.” 33:29 automatic transcript, may be wrong

The record

No renewal found An automated finding, not a verdict. A renewal would have appeared in the Copyright Office's renewal registrations 27 to 29 years after the term began. Those volumes are loaded and our parse of them found no matching renewal. If that is right, a work published 1931–1963 that was not renewed entered the public domain at the end of its 28th year; the volumes are OCR of old print, and the method page reports how often the parse has been found to miss one. Evidence dossier. 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.
