A courtroom scene where evidence is presented against Mrs. Williams, linking her to Jim Torrance through items found in a suitcase. The prosecutor displays pajamas, letters, and a picture, and references a suitcase tag dated June 9th.
“And it was Torrance who was to have met you that night after your charming little plot to kill your husband had been duly executed.” 106:41 · “It's not true. It's not true. I have bad news for you, Mrs. Williams.” 106:41 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.
