Why this status applies

The film 'Marked Woman' was released in 1937, which falls within the 1928–1963 window where copyright protection depended on a timely renewal filing in the 28th year. According to the Stanford Copyright Renewal Database and the Library of Congress Catalog of Copyright Entries (CCE), the copyright was successfully renewed by United Artists Television (acting as the successor in interest to the original rights holder, Warner Bros.) on June 18, 1964, under renewal number R339599. The original registration was LP7002, dated April 10, 1937. Because the renewal was filed correctly within the statutory window, the film's copyright was extended for a second term. Under the 1976 Copyright Act and the 1998 Sonny Bono Copyright Term Extension Act, this protection lasts for 95 years from the original publication date. Consequently, 'Marked Woman' will remain under copyright in the United States until January 1, 2033, at which point it will enter the public domain.
