Plane Crazy

Plane Crazy (1928)
Walter Elias Disney and Ub Iwerks

Only a silent test screening of the film was released in May 1928. A sound version wouldn't be released until the next year, and so the audio is still under copyright. This is a transcription of only the text available on the film. Any audible dialogue may be completely missing. The transcription will be reassessed in 2025 for the possibility of sound dialogue.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published in 1928, before the cutoff of January 1, 1929.

Copyright law abroad tends to consider the following people authors of a film:

The principal director
The screenwriter, and/or other writers of dialogue
The composer/lyricist (if the film is accompanied by sound)
The cinematographer
By extension, the authors of any works that may serve as the basis for a film's plot

The longest-living of these authors died in 1971, so this work is in the public domain in countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 52 years or less. This work may be in the public domain in countries and areas with longer native copyright terms that apply the rule of the shorter term to foreign works.
