Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense and conversational; themes: mystery, regret, duty; style notes: medium close-ups, natural outdoor lighting, static framing

Two men in cowboy hats converse outdoors under trees; one mentions Mr. Harper's death and suspects Jack Henderson. A third man, identified as Blackie, offers to move a horse for Mr. Freeman, who is present.

“You won't be. Too bad about Mr. Harper, wasn't it, Mr. Freeman? Terrible.” 20:51 · “All suspicion seems to point to Jack Henderson. Jack Henderson? Well, uh, why Jack Henderson? I mean fighting back and forth. What that partnership deal he had you working on. I suppose that's a dead goose now. Oh, not necessarily. Of course it will delay it, but, uh... Well, you ought to know. Well, you ought to know.” 21:02 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.
