Not offered: what its record states (its uploader's public-domain mark, or a licence not shown to be its rights holder's) leaves its US term to decide, and it is dated 1953; under US law a work of that year is free only on facts the site does not hold for it (its US renewal records, or its own country's term on 1 January 1996 for a work published abroad), and otherwise its US term runs to the end of 2048.

About
The Hitch-Hiker is a 1953 American independent film noir thriller directed by Ida Lupino, who co-wrote it with her former husband Collier Young, and starring Edmond O'Brien, William Talman and Frank Lovejoy. Based on the 1950 killing spree of Billy Cook, It follows two friends, Roy Collins and Gilbert Bowen, who pick up a hitchhiker named Emmett Myers during a fishing trip to Mexico. Unbeknownst to them, Myers is a serial killer who takes them hostage, forcing them to drive through the desert while he terrorizes them, until they ultimately seek a chance to escape as law enforcement closes in on him.
