Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: neutral; style notes: low-angle close-up, high-contrast lighting creating strong diagonal shadows, typical of 1930s black-and-white film

A close-up of two pairs of feet on a wooden floor, one wearing dark shoes and the other lighter shoes, with strong diagonal shadows. No dialogue or identifiable characters are present in this beat.

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.
