Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense; themes: confrontation, outdoor labor or conflict; style notes: medium shots, natural outdoor lighting, muddy costumes suggest physical struggle or aftermath

Two men are shown in a muddy outdoor setting, one holding the other by the shoulders; they appear to be arguing or confronting each other. The transcript includes shouted dialogue, including a name, 'Mr. Jones,' and exclamations about heat.

“Are you still down here? Hey! Oh, I swat it away, huh? Hotter, Mr. Jones! Hotter!” 51:38 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.
