Model opinion, not evidence: mood: dramatic and staged; themes: performance, stagecraft; style notes: high-contrast lighting, theatrical framing, static camera

Two figures are visible on a dimly lit stage; one stands elevated while the other is lower and smaller in frame. No dialogue or on-screen text is present in this beat.

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.
