Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: serious, interrogative; themes: authority, interrogation, confession; style notes: static medium shots and close-ups, high-contrast black-and-white lighting, formal framing

A man in uniform speaks while seated at a desk in a wood-paneled room; a woman in a beret and dark jacket is shown in close-up, reacting. The transcript indicates a discussion about working on a case and being in a cabin.

“In fact, he worked all night on the case with Sherwood and myself.” 38:50 · “I think you'd better answer his question.” 38:50 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.
