Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense; themes: suspense, domestic confrontation; style notes: black-and-white, medium and wide shots, high-contrast lighting, classic Hollywood set design

A woman in a dark dress stands near a man in a suit in a room with ornate decor; another shot shows a man in light-colored suit from behind facing a woman in a long dress near a fireplace. The transcript includes a line about someone's 'schizo' and a rhetorical question about getting up.

“Uh-uh, her schizo is about to frighten you.” 24:20 · “Why did I get up today?” 24:24 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.
