To find out if it's under copyright, there's the US Copyright database at

http://www.copyright.gov/records/cohm.html

This only lists movies that have been registered since 1978. Wikipedia has a list of public domain movies at

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Public_domain_films

The accuracy of this list is not guaranteed. There is a short list at

http://www.pdmdb.org/

Finally, ask on this forum. People are here to help you and usually somebody will have an answer.
