Voice Sample from US Version 1962


I am interested in using a short (2 sentence) voice sample from the dubbed English version of 'First Spaceship to Venus' for a music record. Is there still any copyright control over the English film, or has this fallen into public domain? The last one to hold an actual release on the film was Crown International, and I'm not sure that they have retained the copyrights.

In other notes, I loved the MST3K version, but I still believe that this is an interesting film and very nicely shot.

I'm sure you can sample anything you want from this film. If its on mill creek it is most likely public domain. Just curious, which bit caught your ear?

Well it looks as if DEFA has renewed the copyright on the film. there is a phone number (413) 545-6681 to call to find the info you want.
