Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense and curious; themes: colonial encounter, fear of the unknown, gendered power dynamics; style notes: medium shots, natural daylight, outdoor setting with jungle foliage, characters in period safari attire

Two men in safari attire converse outdoors while others stand nearby; one man is reprimanded for knocking over pots. The dialogue refers to a 'white goddess' and 'she-devils' in the jungle, and a character named Tonga is mentioned.

“I thought you were all over that business, Tonga. Tonga, no afraid for voodoo.” 21:33 · “She's queen of the she-devils. Very pretty. But good native is freed from her.” 21:46 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.
