Lloyd and Harry are two men known for their extreme foolishness. When Mary, an attractive woman, loses an important suitcase containing money just before departing for Aspen, the two friends—who have discovered the suitcase—decide to return it to her. After going through a series of "adventures," they eventually arrive in Aspen, where they use the lost money to enjoy the high life and compete for Mary's affection.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

A crew of 93+ credited

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.

Box Office

1994 · Box office

💰 Box-office hit — grossed 15× its budget

Why 2.5×?

Cinemas keep roughly half of every ticket sold, and a wide release’s marketing often costs about as much again as the film — so a movie needs to gross around 2.5× its production budget just to break even theatrically. It’s a rule of thumb, not the studio’s ledger (home video and streaming come later).
