Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: formal announcement; themes: Western frontier, performance, social gathering; style notes: wide shot, bright daylight, outdoor setting, characters in period Western attire

A man in a light suit addresses a group of musicians outdoors under a clear sky. The transcript mentions 'Matt Douglas Jr.' bringing dance steps from New York City, and someone responds 'Yes, ma'am.'

“This Douglas fella... Draco!” 69:16 · “Yes, ma'am.” 69:20 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.
