Why this status applies
Under US copyright law, all works published before January 1, 1928, have entered the public domain regardless of their original copyright status or renewal history. Young Mr. Jazz, a short film starring Harold Lloyd, was released on May 4, 1919, by the Rolin Film Company and distributed by Pathé Exchange.
Since the film was published more than 95 years ago and falls before the 1928 cutoff established by the Copyright Term Extension Act, its term of protection has expired. It is now free for use, reproduction, and distribution within the United States.
