- Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense and concerned; themes: suspense, missing persons, official inquiry; style notes: tight close-ups and medium shots, high-contrast black-and-white lighting, static camera emphasizing dialogue and reaction
A man in a hat and suit speaks to someone off-screen, then stands by a door as another man and a woman walk away outside. The dialogue suggests concern about missing people and a request to contact them at a railroad station.
“And you haven't heard from them since they left?” 58:13 · “No, no, I haven't.” 58:15 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.
