Two men in cowboy hats stand outdoors near rocks; one speaks while another listens. A third man in a cap joins them, and they converse. The dialogue suggests suspicion about a staged fight and an intent to interrogate someone.
“No accident.” 39:50 · “No, and I think that fight was stage two. We'll soon find out. I'll make one of those monkeys talk about it. They've had plenty of time to get away by now.” 39:52 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.
