Forum: feature_films Subject: Not Eligible For GATT?

Can somebody explain this to me? I've seen movies on here with this reason for PD.

What makes a movie not eligible for GATT?

Thanks

URAA/GATT copyright restoration is explained in US Copyright Office Circular 38b. It's only about a half-dozen pages long and well worth the read.
