Two men are in a dimly lit interior, one bald and wearing dark clothes, the other with dark hair and a suit; they discuss a person named Eddie Cagle while one holds a glass. The setting appears to be a bar or similar establishment, with decorative wall elements visible.

“You mean the doomed soul that was here, Kegel at the Kegel?” 11:39 · “Eddie Cagle.” 11:43 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.
