Two men are in a boat; one is shirtless and leaning over the other, who is lying down. The transcript reveals a plan involving drugging gin for a crew, with one man criticizing the other for not extorting more money.
“Here's the stuff. Did you get any more money out of him?” 32:56 · “Ah, you don't understand the business of being a proper crook. A crook promises and gets paid. Then he backs down and gets more pay.” 32:56 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.
