A woman and a boy speak with an older man in a living room; two men in suits later confront each other while another man watches from the background. The transcript indicates a boy named Pidge wants to see something up close, is told to use a telescope, and that the back door is locked and the phone in the kitchen should not be disturbed.
“Can we see the present, Grandpa?” 25:39 · “Can we, Mom? No, Pidge, we have to stay here. You can watch him from here. But I want to get up close. Well, use your telescope, boy. Bring him right up the eye. Uh... Sorry, Pidge.” 25:42 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.
