Two men are shown in a jail setting; one dances while another in a turban watches. A third man in a suit and hat is seated and speaking. The transcript includes a spoken verse about someone being woken and blowing a tune.
“Come on.” 29:13 · “He took you out of slumber, he took you out of bed. He took you into line and then he goes somewhere and he hangs his head. But still he blows and blows and blows, blows and blows, blows and blows. He wakes you with this crazy tune that goes to bed and sleeps to noon.” 29:31 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.
