Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense and focused; themes: man and horse, Western frontier, taming or control; style notes: medium close-up on the man, wide shot of the horse; high-contrast black-and-white lighting; Western genre framing

A masked man in a cowboy hat speaks to a white horse in an outdoor setting; the transcript includes calls to the horse and a comment about using a hackamore. No names are spoken that identify the man or the horse beyond 'Stilver' and 'big fellow'.

“Come back, big fellow.” 28:04 · “Come on, Stilver.” 28:11 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.
