Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: resigned and amicable; themes: reconciliation, rural community, cowboy camaraderie; style notes: medium shots, natural outdoor lighting, static framing, period Western costume

Two men in cowboy hats converse outdoors near horses; one hands a basket to the other. One man mentions giving beef to Mrs. Worth and feeling relieved after a speech to neighbors.

“I'm gonna bring her over a quarter of beef now and then.” 42:24 · “Finally come to an understanding with my neighbors.” 42:27 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.
