Two men discuss acquiring a body for one of them to inhabit, referencing a 'double' and a deal involving a job. The setting is an outdoor alley with a bakery sign, and one man is shown in two different outfits across frames.
“Hey, I don't feel nothing. Of course not. You haven't got a body.” 17:23 · “Hey, you mug, look at what you're doing. No one can see you or hear you until I find you a body. Now, come on in.” 17:29 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.
