- Interpretation
- Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense and reverent; themes: cultural theft, beauty and danger, international intrigue; style notes: high-contrast black-and-white lighting, medium two-shot framing, formal attire suggests high-stakes drama
Two men in tuxedos examine a large, luminous orb in a velvet-lined box; dialogue reveals it is a stolen artifact from Nan King, sought by the Chinese government. The object is described as beautiful but dangerous.

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.
