Fair use in film noir
This is an audio excerpt from a commercial motion picture's musical score and accompanying soundtrack film. Its inclusion here is claimed as fair use because:
 * It illustrates an educational article that discusses the excerpted score and its status as "the most significant" of film noir jazz scores, which is often "cited as an example of the relationship between the idioms of jazz and film noir" (Source: Butler, David (2002), Jazz Noir: Listening to Music from Phantom Lady to The Last Seduction, p. 12. Westport, Conn.: Greenwood. ISBN 0275973018).
 * It is a low-bit-rate sample of less than 30 seconds from a significantly longer musical track and score, and far longer motion picture, and could not be used as a substitute for the original commercial recording;
 * It is not replaceable with a free-use sample of comparable educational value; and
 * It is believed that this sample will not affect the value of the original work or limit the copyright holder's rights or ability to distribute the original recording.
