Model opinion, not evidence: mood: leisurely and conversational; themes: social gatherings, romantic nostalgia, interpersonal negotiation; style notes: medium shot, outdoor daylight, static framing, mid-century costume and set design

Four people sit outdoors in wicker chairs around a small table; one man speaks while others listen. A woman mentions a dinner dance at the Gables and references moonlit decks and the song 'Paradise Isle' to Henry.

“She and I are going over to the Gables tonight to the dinner dance.” 32:20 · “That's if you've no objections, Henry. Not at all. Sheila speaks very highly of your dancing. Sure, she'll enjoy it. Well, that'll leave you free to be with me. That is, if you don't mind, Mrs. Tuttle. Oh, not at all, Miss Van Orden. I think it's awfully nice of you because I wouldn't want Henry to be alone. We'll dine aboard the yacht and it'll be like old times. You know, I never lie on a moonlit deck or listen to that lovely Hawaiian thing, Paradise Isle, without thinking of you, Henry. Henry.” 32:24 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.
