Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: somber and tense; themes: awakening, inheritance, regret; style notes: low-key lighting, tight framing on characters, high contrast between dark clothing and rocky background

A man in a dark coat and cap stands over a bed in a dim, rocky space, speaking to someone off-screen. He mentions a sum of money and references sleeping for 18 years before being addressed as 'Father'.

“There it is, Al. 90,000 dollars worth.” 54:08 · “been sleeping here 18 years haven't you.” 54:11 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.
