Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense and suspenseful; themes: search, family mystery, persistence, nature as obstacle; style notes: wide shots emphasize scale of landscape; high-contrast black-and-white cinematography; characters are small within vast natural setting

A person on horseback is seen in a mountainous, rocky landscape with a waterfall; dialogue indicates concern for someone named Ryan and a decision to follow someone named Ruth. No names are visually confirmed on screen, and the setting is outdoors in a rugged natural environment.

“Look.” 55:15 · “There's this horse.” 55:16 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.
