A boy and an adult man walk along a sidewalk past storefronts; the boy holds a box and the man wears a uniform. The transcript reveals a conversation where the boy refers to his mother and the man guesses what the boy wants, suggesting ice cream, movies, or a baseball bat.
“She wouldn't let me.” 2:22 · “Well, then you better say Mom, Pidge. It's kind of not polite to say she like that, especially about your mother. Well, anyway, she wouldn't.” 2:26 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.
