Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense; themes: naval warfare, military command; style notes: black-and-white, medium close-up on figures, high-contrast lighting on deck, wide shot of sinking ship

A ship is shown sinking in water while two men in uniform stand on a vessel's deck, one pointing. A voice orders an attack on the Congress as the Cumberland sinks.

“The cumberland is sinking. Attack the congress. Aye, aye, sir.” 42:08 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.
