Play Misty for Me

"Escalofrío en la noche" is the Spanish-language title for the 1971 Clint Eastwood thriller "Play Misty for Me." As a US production released in 1971, its copyright status is governed by the 1909 Copyright Act as amended by the Copyright Renewal Act of 1992. For works published between 1964 and 1977, renewal was made automatic by federal law (17 USC § 304); therefore, its copyright duration was extended to a total of 95 years from the date of publication without the need for a renewal filing at the typical 28-year mark. The film was originally registered with the US Copyright Office by Universal Pictures (and Malpaso Company) under registration number LP40476. The film is currently under active commercial exploitation, managed by Universal Studios, and appears in the online Copyright Office database through various derivative works and ownership notices. Under current law, it will not enter the public domain until January 1, 2067 (95 years after its 1971 release/registration).
