Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense; themes: moral dilemma, consequences of violence; style notes: black-and-white close-ups with high contrast lighting, natural outdoor setting

Two men in suits are shown in separate close-ups outdoors, with trees visible behind them. The transcript contains dialogue discussing killing someone for the sake of children and a judge, but no names are spoken.

“You know what that would mean to Judge Parker.” 73:24 · “Either way...” 73:35 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.
