Synopsis

Maindrian Pace, an insurance investigator by day, leads a team of car thieves in their nocturnal exploits. When a South American drug lord hires Pace to steal 48 vehicles, 47 have already been successfully taken. With only one car remaining—a 1973 Ford Mustang known as "Eleanor"—Pace sets his sights on Long Beach for the final heist. Unbeknownst to him, his boss has alerted the police following a recent business disagreement.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 14

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.

Box Office

1974 · Box office

💰 Box-office hit — grossed 40× 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).
