A man and a woman stand in a bedroom with a dog on the bed; the woman holds a bottle and the man holds the dog. The dialogue suggests a late-night disagreement about the dog’s presence and behavior.

“How'd you ever think of it? Oh, within the minute I saw... Oh, look at him. He wants to play...” 15:14 · “Now, beat it. Your bed's downstairs. Go ahead, throw it. I'll throw him.” 15:23 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.
