Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense and emotionally charged; themes: emotional conflict, duty vs. personal feeling, authority; style notes: medium shot, black-and-white, studio lighting, static framing

A man in uniform speaks beside a vehicle while a woman sits inside; another uniformed man stands nearby. A voice speaks of emotional conflict and a summons from the Commodore.

“Didn't you take her to the train? She wouldn't let me. She wouldn't let me touch her. That's what it means, hate. Hate for those we love. She's just a little girl. She doesn't understand. Neither do I.” 12:28 · “We better go, Raymond. The Commodore wants to see us.” 12:44 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.
