Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: somber and formal; themes: authority, dismissal, anticipation; style notes: low-key lighting, tight framing on characters, use of shadow and window backlighting

A woman is seen in a dimly lit interior, looking toward a window; a man in a robe stands with his back to the camera as another person speaks to him. The dialogue indicates someone is being dismissed and another is being granted entry.

“Well, what do you think of it?” 10:34 · “Good night, Charis. I will leave you to your work.” 10:37 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.
