Two men are seen in a street scene near a ticket booth, followed by a man in distress indoors. Dialogue references a taxi, a palace, and phonetic sounds, suggesting a transition from public to private space and a discussion about speech.
“Oh, excuse me. Haven't you seen those two ladies over here just now? Oh, they went to the bus when the rain stopped. And left me with a cab on me hand. Oh, God. Never mind, young man.” 12:10 · “I'm going home in a taxi. Yeah, wait a minute. Eighteen pins seem no object to me, Charlie.” 12:20 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.
