- Interpretation
- Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense and conspiratorial; themes: espionage, interrogation, suspicion, wartime intelligence; style notes: medium shots, static camera, high-contrast lighting, formal attire, wood-paneled interiors suggest a serious, mid-century British setting
Two men discuss a captured man named Kurtz, whom they believe is a German agent; a third man in a bowler hat joins them in a wood-paneled room. The conversation centers on Kurtz's connection to Miss Fulton and Trenton, and the men agree he is lying.
“How did that lead of mine work out? Splendid.” 37:13 · “We picked up that man Kurtz this afternoon.” 37:17 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.
