Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: nostalgic and gentle; themes: dreams, nature, domestic interaction; style notes: black-and-white, medium shots indoors, wide shot outdoors, soft lighting indoors

A man and a woman are indoors, interacting with a camera; the scene cuts to an outdoor shot of a stream in a valley. The transcript describes a dream of a green valley with a rippling stream.

“There's a little green valley I found in a dream, a little green valley with a rippling stream.” 25:56 · “The stream's running through, grass is knee-deep too, in that little valley of mine.” 25:56 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.
