Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense and formal; themes: justice, accusation, secrecy; style notes: static medium shots, high-contrast black-and-white lighting, formal courtroom framing

A courtroom scene shows a man addressing the jury while a woman sits nearby; dialogue references a murder trial and a key to an apartment. No names are spoken that identify the individuals beyond their roles in the trial.

“Ladies and gentlemen of the jury,” 64:13 · “The state asks you to find Madeline Damien guilty.” 64:15 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.
