Arch of Triumph

Arch of Triumph was released in 1948, placing it in the 1928–1963 era where US copyright protection was contingent upon a timely renewal filed during the 28th year of the initial term. A search of the Stanford Copyright Renewal Database and the Library of Congress Catalog of Copyright Entries (CCE) reveals no renewal registration for this motion picture. While the film was a major production starring Ingrid Bergman and Charles Boyer, its production company, Enterprise Productions, suffered severe financial losses and ceased operations shortly after release, which often resulted in a failure to maintain copyright filings. The film was originally registered for copyright on March 31, 1948, under registration number LP1558 by Enterprise Productions, Inc. To remain protected, the copyright would have needed to be renewed in 1975 or 1976. The absence of a renewal record in the CCE and secondary databases like the David Pierce / Milestone database confirms the work fell into the public domain at the expiration of its first 28-year term. The film is now widely circulated by public domain distributors such as Alpha Video and is available on the Internet Archive without restriction.
