Synopsis

In the 1870s, two rival businessmen, Zack Thomas and Joe Jarrett, travel together on a stagecoach bound for Galveston, Texas, after forming a temporary alliance to safeguard $100,000 from an outlaw named Matson. Upon arriving in Galveston, their rivalry resumes, with Thomas aligning with Elya Carlson and Jarrett with Maxine Richter. Meanwhile, Matson remains at large, and a manipulative banker poses a new threat to both Thomas and Jarrett.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 16

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
