Interpretation

Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense; themes: intimacy, unease; style notes: high-contrast lighting, tight framing on two characters, black-and-white film stock

A man and a woman are shown in close proximity in a dimly lit interior. The woman wears a decorative headpiece and looks away with a concerned expression while the man looks at her.

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.

Paste the permalink anywhere that shows link previews and it carries the frame, the time and the finding. The card image can be saved and used with a credit.
