Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: resigned yet hopeful; themes: redemption, rural life, personal transformation; style notes: medium shot, black-and-white, natural outdoor lighting, composition centers on the man and woman

A man in a cowboy hat sits beside a woman in a patterned dress; another woman is visible behind them. The man speaks, declaring he will be a farmer from now on. The setting appears to be outdoors in a rural landscape.

“Not me, mister.” 98:34 · “From now on, I'm a farmer.” 98:36 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.
