Model opinion, not evidence: mood: solitary, suspenseful; themes: isolation, voyage, observation; style notes: static shots, high contrast, circular vignette, abrupt cut to black

A sailing ship is shown on the sea across three frames, followed by a black screen. No people, dialogue, or on-screen text are visible in this beat.

The record

Published 1922, so any US term has expired; no US registration under this title appears in the catalog. The status is a calculation from the date, not a finding about a record. 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.
