Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense and formal; themes: authority, obedience, military discipline; style notes: medium close-up shots, static framing, high-contrast black-and-white lighting emphasizing facial expressions and uniform details

Two men in uniform jackets are shown in close interaction across four frames; one speaks to the other, who is instructed to go to his quarters. The setting appears to be an interior space with windows and wooden walls.

“Chief, I can explain this.” 48:48 · “I hope you can, Sherwood.” 48:48 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.
