- Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense and confrontational; themes: duty, failure, place and identity; style notes: medium close-ups, high-contrast lighting, static framing typical of 1930s Westerns
Two people in period Western attire converse indoors; one speaks about another man's loss of confidence and failure. The dialogue suggests a conflict over whether to stay in the town or return east.
“I'd like to speak to you about your father.” 23:23 · “He put everything he had into this town.” 23:28 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.
