Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense but conversational; themes: safari, reluctance, encouragement; style notes: medium shot, natural lighting, outdoor setting, group composition

A group of five people in safari attire are gathered outdoors in tall grass, with one man kneeling and speaking to others. The transcript includes dialogue about taking a shot, with one person declining and another encouraging them.

“Don't you think it's time to have the first shot?” 30:01 · “Oh, no, no, I don't want it.” 30:01 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.
