- Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense and dramatic; themes: legal drama, accusation, emotional reaction; style notes: close-up and medium shots emphasize facial expressions; high-contrast black-and-white lighting; formal courtroom setting
A woman in a dark hat and veil is shown in close-up and medium shots in what appears to be a courtroom; a man in a suit stands nearby. The transcript indicates a legal motion to dismiss charges against Walter Williams and to charge Irene Williams with conspiracy to commit murder.
“Just a moment, Mrs. Williams.” 107:24 · “Your Honor, in view of the evidence presented...” 107:28 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.
