Synopsis

A husband and wife are in love, though he is often nagged by her mother. After a small amount of whiskey gives him courage, he leaves in a huff, declaring he will no longer be a domestic slave. He goes to a park bench, where a photographer mistakes him for a woman's boyfriend and takes a tintype of the pair. The photograph ends up in the hands of the woman's husband, whose jealous reaction scares the man. He quickly leaves town, telling his wife he is going away on business. While he is gone, the wife, who does not need the house, moves in with her mother and rents the house to the couple from the park. When the husband returns home earlier than expected, the new tenant has another episode of jealousy.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 11

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.
