Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense but resolved; themes: confrontation, departure, Western town life; style notes: wide shots of town square, natural daylight, Western costume and set design

Two men argue in a town square while a crowd watches; one man hands the other a bottle. A group of men on horseback then rides out of the square. The setting is a Western town with wooden buildings and mountains in the background.

“Come on! Now what is that, false courage?” 114:03 · “Why, you know a Douglas doesn't ever use a thing like that.” 114:10 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.
