- Interpretation
- Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense and urgent; themes: medical emergency, suspense, authority and control; style notes: static medium shots, high-contrast lighting, staged composition typical of 1940s studio films
In a hospital room, several men in suits and a man in a white coat stand around a bed; one man is seated and another is being led away. A conversation occurs about an ambulance and a mysterious click on a device, followed by an order to remove someone named Frazier.

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.
