Two men converse in a dimly lit interior, one holding a small box; later, two figures in hats and coats stand in a doorway. The transcript reveals a discussion about a robbery, a man being struck, and skepticism toward the 'petty thief' explanation.
“Except, of course, for the fact that it was definitely a man. All you remember is that you came in here and someone struck you on the head.” 15:09 · “Oh, Tom, aren't you being a bit of an alarmist? Possibly. Oh, Mr. Greer, you old stinky.” 15:30 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.
