Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: uneasy; themes: isolation, time, cemetery as setting; style notes: black-and-white, wide shot, natural lighting, static camera

Two figures walk through a cemetery during daylight. One speaks about the time change and sleep loss, while the other urges them forward.

“Well, there's no one around. Well, it's late. You've gotten up earlier. Oh, look, I already lost an hour's sleep on the time change. I think you complained just to hear yourself talk.” 3:56 · “Come on.” 4:06 automatic transcript, may be wrong

The record

Public domain through a copyright notice omitted on release in 1968, a rule this registry does not yet apply; the finding is the film's own documented history, not a catalog check. 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.
