A group of men in suits and hats are seen in a dimly lit interior, likely a backstage or locker room area, reacting to Johnny Bradfield's boxing victory. The transcript includes praise for Johnny's character and fighting style, with references to his youth, sportsmanship, and a championship win.
“Yeah, Miss, for the million things she gave me... You think that's funny, don't you? Lay off Johnny's can. Oh, don't get sore. I didn't mean anything. Okay.” 4:53 · “Just because a guy doesn't drink and fool around with women and respects his mother, you don't have to make a monkey out of him. No, no, no. Don't pay any attention to him, Johnny. The rest of us think you're okay. Sure do. Good night. Good night, Johnny.” 5:03 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.
