A man in a cowboy hat is tied to a chair while another man in a hat and vest stands over him, speaking. A third person lies on a bed in the background. The dialogue suggests a threat over missing money.

“Seems like that gang of yours started running out on you. They'll be back all right. When they do, they'll ring your neck until you tell them where that $10,000 is.” 46:17 · “That old broken-down Maverick ain't got no more money than I got hair.” 46:26 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.
