Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense; themes: confrontation, suspicion, Western genre; style notes: black-and-white, medium and close shots, natural outdoor lighting, characters in period Western attire

Two men in cowboy hats crouch behind cover in a rocky, brushy outdoor setting; one holds a rifle. A third man in a cowboy hat is seen aiming a pistol from behind a rock. A line from the transcript suggests suspicion about a 'half-breed' and 'her collars'.

“Got a chance that half-breed played her collars.” 9:12 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.
