Four men in formal wear stand in a room with curtains and chandeliers; one wears a fedora. A wider shot shows a crowd in evening attire mingling, with one man in a fedora walking through. The transcript indicates a gathering has turned serious after someone did not move, and guests are being asked to leave with names recorded.
“until Mrs. Edwards told her husband to get up.” 24:12 · “She was taken to her room by Professor Jamy.” 24:18 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.
