Not offered here: it is made from The Bridge over the River Kwai, Pierre Boulle's novel of 1952, which is still protected here: it was first published abroad in 1952 (France), and its US copyright was restored on 1 January 1996 (17 U.S.C. §104A), as it was still protected in its source country then; it is protected in the United States until the end of 2047. Showing the film shows the work's expression in it (Stewart v. Abend, 495 U.S. 207, 223 (1990)), so it is held here while the work is protected; unclear is not offered.
