Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense; themes: confrontation, performance, tradition; style notes: wide shots, natural daylight, high contrast between the bull and the matador's bright cape

A bullfighter in a white shirt and blue pants faces a black bull in a dirt arena with spectators in the stands. The bull charges at the matador, who uses a red and yellow cape to maneuver the animal.

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.
