I know we're all packing to head off to Denver, but I thought I throw this out to all of you. One of my colleagues is doing a freelance graphic design project and wants to use a movie still. He'd like to see if the one he has in mind is in public domain. Anyone have any ideas how to go about doing this? My guess is that very little if anything from the movie industry is public domain, but I thought I'd ask anyway. See ya'll soon! And thanks in advance for your collective wisdom.
