- Also said
- “No, you don't. Now I got him. Now I got him. Go on. Get the press. Get the press. I'll lay him out as flat as a piece of linoleum. Get him over here in the sunlight where the boys can photograph the body. Now, wait a minute. Wait a minute before you make any more mistakes. Wait a minute.” 13:34

- Interpretation
- Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense and confrontational; themes: identity dispute, media sensationalism, physical intimidation; style notes: medium shot, static framing, high-contrast black-and-white lighting typical of 1930s studio films
Three men are in a doorway; one identifies himself as Burley Sullivan while another reacts aggressively, demanding the press be called. The setting appears to be an interior room with a doorway, and the interaction is tense.
“I'm Burley Sullivan.” 13:18 · “It's a lie.” 13:19 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.
