“Come on, honey, we gotta move.” 64:13 · “Tom, are you sure about the phone? The phone is dead out. All you get is a recorded message.” 64:16 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.
