Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: somber and transitional; themes: reinvention, migration, identity; style notes: wide shot, low contrast, silhouetted figures against sky, period costume implied by context

A wagon train moves across an open field under a cloudy sky. A character named Uncle Lace is mentioned in dialogue as having changed the family name to Holbrooke for safety while traveling into Yankee territory.

“Uncle Lace, probably had to change our name to Holbrooke. Doesn't seem quite honest. It's safer, Betty Lee. We're traveling into Yankee country. We're starting all over again in a new land, even to our name.” 18:12 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.
