Synopsis

The rat population has spiraled out of control in Hamlin, with the pests taking over the kitchen. When they invade the King's bedroom, he decides enough is enough and offers a reward of $5 for their removal. The rats, however, alter the sign to promise $5,000. Alice and Julius take on the task, playing music to draw the rats in, but the clever creatures refuse to fall for the classic trick of being led into the river. Instead, Alice and Julius use a powerful vacuum cleaner to suck up all the rats. The King honors the original reward, giving them the $5 he had initially offered.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 2

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.
