Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: formal and tense; themes: introduction, emotional tension, social formality; style notes: close-up shots, high-contrast lighting, studio-bound framing

A woman with blonde curls and a man in a suit appear in alternating close-ups. The transcript includes an introduction of 'Monsieur Pierre de Roche, Attaché at the embassy' and fragmented dialogue about a ball and crying.

“You wouldn't dare to let me make you cry again.” 52:38 · “Monsieur Pierre de Roche.” 52:48 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.
