Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense but controlled; themes: social interaction, frontier life, gender roles; style notes: medium shots, studio lighting, period costumes, static camera

A man smokes a cigar while speaking to a woman in a green dress and yellow hat; two other men enter the scene. The dialogue references Indian fighting and a ride out to the location.

“What has our conversation got to do with Indian fighting?” 38:04 · “Indian fighting is good experience for our kind of conversations. Oh. It'll wait, Catherine.” 38:07 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.
