Synopsis

In Normandy, France, toward the end of World War II, young French women were recruited to serve as wives for American GIs. In U.S. Army recreation camps, known as "Cigarette Camps," they were prepared for their journey to the United States to join the men who had married them.

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.
