Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense but comedic; themes: romantic bravado, male rivalry, urban dating; style notes: medium shot, high-contrast lighting, static camera, period costume

Two men are in a room; one stands and gestures while the other sits on a couch. The standing man accuses the seated man of kissing girls he meets on the street, and the seated man replies that he also gets kisses.

“I'm not like you, walking up to every girl I meet in the street and kissing her.” 12:37 · “I'll bet you get a lot of slaps in the face, huh?” 12:43 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.
