Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: casual, conversational; themes: military life, food and camaraderie, everyday routines aboard ship; style notes: black-and-white, medium shots, natural lighting on deck, no studio backdrops

A sailor in uniform stands on a ship's deck holding a rifle, while another man in a cap adjusts his belt nearby. The transcript includes dialogue about Navy food and an invitation to dinner.

“There is around that way you're going to have to throw that belt away. I got your right.” 23:04 · “clean mom's cooking in that Navy chow. They're about to play near with my streamlined figures. Yeah they sure are. Mom's having corned beef and cabbage tonight if you can't drop around.” 23:08 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.
