Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense and confrontational; themes: imprisonment, authority, testimony, power imbalance; style notes: black-and-white, medium close-ups on the woman, medium shots on the men; lighting focused on faces, background dimly lit; static camera

A woman recounts being attacked by a soldier in the dark while seated in a room; two men in military uniforms are shown in a separate scene, one seated at a desk with maps and the other standing nearby. No names are spoken, and the setting appears to be an office with maps on the wall.

“I did nothing whatever to attract this soldier. I don't even think he could see me in the dark.” 71:05 · “He attacked me because I was helpless and a prisoner.” 71:09 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.
