- Interpretation
- Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense and dramatic; themes: romantic conflict, pirate adventure, rescue and defiance; style notes: medium close-ups on characters, bright outdoor lighting, clear focus on facial expressions and dialogue
Two men converse on a ship's deck; one, in a captain's cap, speaks with the other, an older man in a suit. The dialogue reveals a plot involving a woman, a trader named Mackenzie, and a threat of marriage to 'old man Warren,' which the speaker vows to prevent by making her a 'pirate queen.'
“Well, they had some sort of misunderstanding. He must have been a dumb fool. Who is he? Well, a young trader by the name of Mackenzie.” 29:43 · “He's the best, but he needs a-going over giving up a gal like that.” 29:43 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.
