Here is a list of feature length films in the [[Public Domain]] in the United States of America. (Other countries have different copyright laws which do not have the various exemptions that USA copyright law used to have.) There is also a book from the 1970s called "50,000 motion pictures in the public domain" which was created by checking films that had been registered for copyright but the copyright was never renewed - something that was required in the USA before 1976.
