Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: solemn and parting; themes: military duty, departure, shared destiny; style notes: medium close-up shots, high-contrast black-and-white lighting, static framing emphasizing dialogue

Two men in military uniforms speak outdoors near trees; one identifies himself as having served in the cavalry and announces he is leaving on a long journey. The other man, addressed as General, responds by noting he too is journeying into the West.

“I was with the cavalry, sir.” 10:15 · “With your permission, I'll be going, General.” 10:22 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.
