Yes, the status of many films changed with the US government's adoption of the GATT/Uruguay treaty which stated that foreign film made after Jan. 1, 1923 that were previously in public domain would enter into copyright again. Many films were re-registered with the Library of Congress (Milestone did this for the owners of WOMAN IN THE DUNES, THE ADVENTURES OF PRINCE ACHMED and PICCADILLY among others) and you can download the lists at http://www.copyright.gov/gatt.html I can't remember exactly, but I'm pretty sure Un chien Andalou one was one of them. And even if it wasn't, there are still restrictions.
