Why this status applies

Under the current laws of the United States, specifically the Copyright Term Extension Act, all works published or registered before January 1, 1929, have entered the public domain. This film, starring Tom Mix and directed by John G. Blystone, was released by Fox Film Corp. in February 1925. Because the film was published in 1925, its maximum 95-year copyright term expired no later than January 1, 2021. Even if the copyright had been properly renewed (which occurred on April 24, 1952, under registration R93933), the extension to 95 years has fully elapsed, making the film's status as public domain definitive and undisputed.
