Three men in a wood-paneled room discuss the nature of hunting and civilization while holding drinks; one man recounts a tiger hunt where he felt mutual admiration with the animal. A photograph of a jungle scene is shown, and the men debate whether the tiger was hunting for sport as humans do.
“And he talks about taking chances. Here's the Doc charging the enemy with an unloaded camera. Get the expression on Doc's face, Bill. He looks more frightened than the tiger. He is.” 4:34 · “I was thinking of the inconsistency of civilization. The beast of the jungle killing just for his existence is called savage.” 4:50 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.
