Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: urgent; themes: flight from danger, group coordination under threat; style notes: medium shots, outdoor natural lighting, black-and-white film stock, wide framing to show group movement

A group of people, including a woman in a checkered dress and a man in a cowboy hat, are seen outdoors near a fence and trees; they are urged to run to the swamp as more adversaries approach. The scene ends with a group rushing into dense foliage.

“Clear up! More of his gorillas are coming!” 2:54 · “Take the others down to the swamp. Come, Betty Lee.” 2:58 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.
