Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: warm and comedic; themes: reunion, mistaken identity, comedy of manners; style notes: medium shots, static camera, high-contrast lighting typical of 1930s studio films

A man in a vest and apron greets another man in uniform at a bar counter; a woman in a patterned dress is present. The man in uniform enters and embraces the man in the vest, then turns toward the woman.

“Francois!” 7:12 · “François! It is so good to see you. After just a long time, why didn't you just know you were coming? I wanted to surprise your chef. Where is she?” 7:15 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.
