Two men in tuxedos converse in a formal indoor setting; one invites the other to mingle and offers help finding a dance partner or drink. The scene is lit for a social gathering, with other guests visible in the background.
“Hello, Mr. Tanning. I'm surprised to see you. Well, when you gave me the invitation, Pete, I thought you meant it. Sure, I did. You're welcome at the Parliament of July.” 53:30 · “Okay, find yourself a squad to dance with. I'll see you later.” 53:40 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.
