Synopsis

During an armored car heist in Los Angeles, crook Dave Purvis shoots policeman Lt. Phillips before escaping with his accomplices and the stolen money. Believing he has evaded consequences, Purvis picks up his money-obsessed mistress, Yvonne, and eliminates his partners before leaving town. What Purvis is unaware of is that Phillips' partner, the determined and resilient Lt. Cordell, has uncovered the criminal's plans and is moving in for the arrest.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 18

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.
