Gone in a Heartbeat
Synopsis
Teenage students kidnap Jan Hale with no intention of harming her; their goal is to collect a ransom from her husband, Mark, to fund a life of luxury. However, when they leave her handcuffed to the steering wheel of their car in freezing conditions, they are unaware that she has a potentially fatal heart condition. As Mark and the police pursue the kidnappers in a tense game of cat and mouse, time is running out, and he faces the possibility of losing his wife.

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
Principal cast & crew: 19
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.
