- Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense but cordial; themes: frontier commerce, deception in business, newcomers in a declining town; style notes: medium shots, static framing, high-contrast black-and-white lighting, Western costume details prominent
Three men in Western attire meet another man outside a building; they discuss buying a stage line and being misled, then are led to a stagecoach. The setting is a dusty town with wooden buildings and a picket fence, suggesting a frontier environment.
“I'd like to customers for our stage line. Yeah. Are you going to run the Crescenton stage, stranger?” 11:11 · “These fellows have taken over the Crescent City stage line. We're the suckers who bought it, all right. I'm sorry to hear that. I'm William Forsythe.” 11:28 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.
