Category:Public domain films
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Articles about post-1923 theatrical-released films that are in the public domain in the region of original release, the United States, and/or other English-speaking regions. Media may be available on Wikimedia Commons or other sites such as the Internet Archive.
Pre-1953 Japanese films have also passed into public domain.[1]
Due to the Copyright Term Extension Act, no more films will automatically enter public domain in the United States until January 1, 2019, when films released in 1923 will be ineligible for copyright (and 1924 films in 2020, 1925 films in 2021, and so on).
Note: As changes have been made to both domestic and international copyright laws in the last two decades, many of the films listed below may no longer be in the public domain. Please do not accept this list as a final source for the copyright status of a film.
