- Interpretation
- Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense and urgent; themes: espionage, escape, suspense; style notes: static medium shots, high-contrast lighting, formal attire suggests a dramatic or espionage context
A man in a tuxedo and two other men are shown in a dim interior, followed by a woman in a formal dress. The transcript mentions a German spy named Kurtz escaping during transfer and sounds of shooting and whistles.
“A man named Kurtz.” 40:37 · “The German spy.” 40:39 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.
