Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense but conversational; themes: law enforcement, frontier justice, romantic entanglements, economic competition; style notes: static medium shots, high-contrast lighting, period costumes, minimal set design

Two men in suits and hats converse in what appears to be a jail or sheriff's office; one is being led away while another speaks with a sheriff about a friend in custody. The dialogue references past events in Kentucky, Kansas, Colorado, and Texas, and mentions an upcoming cattle herd and local spending.

“I didn't shoot the bartender, did I? No, but you busted up the only looking lass in town. Come right with me. Don't suppose they could sue me for that, do you?” 13:40 · “Hello, Sheriff. Hello, Sheriff. I'd like to talk to you about that friend of mine.” 14:09 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.
