Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense but pragmatic; themes: labor negotiation, frontier economy, social status through land ownership; style notes: wide shots establish setting; natural daylight; Western costume and props; characters framed at medium distance

Two men in cowboy hats speak near a train station platform; one asks for work, mentioning suitors and lacking a homestead. A third man sits atop a wagon nearby, and the setting is a dusty Western town with railroad tracks and desert landscape.

“Mr. McLennig?” 11:58 · “I'm a good hand with cattle, Mr. McLennick. You'd like a job.” 12:01 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.
