Synopsis

Angus is a 14-year-old boy who is large, awkward, and deeply infatuated with Melissa Lefevre, a girl he believes is out of his reach. Shy and insecure, he feels he has no chance with her. His uncool demeanor makes it all the more surprising—both to him and the rest of the school—that he is chosen to dance with her at the Winter Ball. The only person who isn't surprised is a popular student who orchestrated the situation to humiliate him. Angus' best friend, however, decides to help him win Melissa's affection by assisting him in developing a new, more confident appearance.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 20

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.
