- Interpretation
- Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense and conspiratorial; themes: secret invention, government control, mad scientist trope; style notes: static medium shot, high-contrast lighting, studio set with visible equipment, typical of 1930s sci-fi
Two men are in a room with scientific equipment; one seated, one standing, discussing a device called the 'divisualizer' and plans to contact the government. A third man is visible in the background. The dialogue references a character named Alex and a woman named Ann.
“But they know nothing of this divisualizer that will conceal me from my enemies.” 7:16 · “They won't punish him, will they? No, Ann. They'll just keep him and what he has found under control so that he can't misuse it.” 7:37 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.
