Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense and introspective; themes: emotional distress, psychological diagnosis, social commentary; style notes: medium close-ups on faces, high-contrast lighting, static framing emphasizing dialogue

A woman and a man are in a room; the man speaks to the woman about her emotional state, referencing a 'disease of the times' and comparing it to alcoholism. The woman listens, seated, while the man stands with his back partially turned.

“Wasn't that because down underneath you knew there was something missing?” 20:52 · “You're suffering from a disease of the times.” 21:09 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.
