“Annabel and her mother are not quite themselves today... In fact, they're each other!”
Synopsis
In the film *Freaky Friday*, Annabel, a schoolgirl, is often troubled by her mother, and Mrs. Andrews is frequently frustrated with her daughter. Both believe the other leads an easier life.

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
Principal cast & crew: 17
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.
