Synopsis

Barbra Streisand was raised in working-class Brooklyn and aspired to escape the challenges of her difficult childhood. A high-achieving student, she chose not to attend college in favor of pursuing a career on Broadway. At 16, she secured her first acting role, but it wasn't until two years later, when she began singing, that her career gained momentum. This program examines her ascent to stardom and the notable accomplishments of her early career.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 19

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.
