A woman embraces a boy on a street while others watch; the boy is identified as Oliver in the transcript. A man in a top hat and coat interacts with the group as the woman speaks to the boy.

“My little brother! My dear little brother! Oh, Oliver! Let go! Please let go! Oliver, I found you! Thank God I found you! Oh, oh, do come on, dear! Please come on! What a lot of this! He ran away weeks ago! She's not my sister, she's...” 29:30 · “Nancy, please, please.” 29:51 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.
