1. The image is being used to illustrate an article about the film depicted in the image.
2. No free or public domain images have been located for this film.
3. The image is of a low resolution (copies made from it will be of inferior quality).
4. The screenshot is being used for informational purposes only, and its use is not believed to detract from the original film or affect the copyright holder in any way.
