Runtime

Synopsis

In late 1958, Hollywood's most famous swashbuckler, Errol Flynn, found himself in the middle of a real-life adventure more improbable than the plot of any film he ever made: the Cuban revolution. It was a fitting climax to mid-20th century Cuba's obsession with American movies - a fixation that led Havana to boast of more movie theatres than New York City and Cubans to worship Gone with the Wind and Casablanca. Sixty years later, many of Havana's iconic movie houses are still standing, and the Cuban love affair with Classical Hollywood still haunts the collective imagination.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 5

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.
