A League of Their Own
When wartime pressures force Major League owners to launch a women’s baseball league, reluctant small‑town catcher Dottie Hinson must decide whether to leave her quiet life for the diamond—while battling self‑doubt and a rival sister determined to seize the chance she refuses.
“Once in a lifetime you get a chance to do something different.”
Synopsis
As America's supply of athletic young men diminishes during World War II, a professional all-female baseball league emerges in the Midwest, supported by publicity-seeking candy manufacturer Walter Harvey. Competitive sisters Dottie Hinson and Kit Keller clash with one another, scout Ernie Capadino, and grumpy former star coach Jimmy Dugan on their journey to success.

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
A crew of 109+ credited
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.

✅ Made its money back — grossed 3.3× its budget
Why 2.5×?
Cinemas keep roughly half of every ticket sold, and a wide release’s marketing often costs about as much again as the film — so a movie needs to gross around 2.5× its production budget just to break even theatrically. It’s a rule of thumb, not the studio’s ledger (home video and streaming come later).
