Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense; themes: confrontation, domestic space under threat; style notes: static medium shot, high-contrast black-and-white lighting, staged composition with figures at different depths

A man in a hat stands near a seated woman on a couch while another man sits in the background; a fourth man stands near a window holding a rifle. The room contains furniture and a window with curtains.

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.
