A man and a woman are in a car; the man is driving and looking at the woman, who appears to be asleep or resting. The transcript reveals the man's internal monologue about his changing feelings toward her and his plans after reaching Los Angeles.
“It wasn't that this girl still worried me. I'd gotten over that funny feeling I had when she looked at me, which I put down as just my jangled nerves.” 34:50 · “clothes and the test was gone out of her. She seemed harmless enough. And instead of disliking her, I began to feel sorry for her.” 34:59 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.
