Synopsis

Popeye and Bluto are, surprisingly, friends and business partners in a moving company. (Perhaps this is why Popeye is not squinting in this scene.) Olive makes the mistake of hiring them for her move. She hasn't finished packing yet, so the two men, instantly smitten upon meeting her, begin competing to help her. Once packing is complete, they continue their rivalry by trying to move increasingly impressive piles of her belongings. Popeye easily wins these contests, even after Bluto locks him in the moving van at one point. At the end, Bluto punches Popeye into a piano and then into a table; Popeye, who hardly seems to need it, eats a can of spinach and then defeats Bluto.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 6

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.
