Checks done:

  • Searched for "Miranda" in the appropriate section of the Catalog of Copyright Entries for 1968, 1969, and 1970 (both halves of the year are included in the Internet Archive uploads)
  • Searched for "Havana" (as in Week-End in Havana) in same 1968 1969 1979.
  • As a check against OCR errors, searched the same again, with "Carmen". 1968, 1969, 1970
  • Checked both in the 1941 sections, to see if I could find an initial copyright. Miranda, Havana
  • Ditto 1940: Miranda, Havana.

Note that the movie itself appears as expected in the relevant sections:

Without knowing the photographer, I don't see how much more could be done. Adam Cuerden (talk) 19:52, 25 May 2023 (UTC)
