GoodFellas
A young Brooklyn boy is drawn into the seductive world of organized crime, rising through the ranks with a crew of outlaws while balancing love, loyalty, and the growing threat of betrayal.
“Three decades of life in the mafia.”
Synopsis
Henry Hill, a half-Irish and half-Sicilian Brooklyn native, was taken in by local gangsters at a young age and became immersed in organized crime. Under the mentorship of Jimmy Conway, Hill ascended through the ranks of a Mafia family, becoming deeply involved in its operations.

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
A crew of 150+ credited
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.

⚖️ Fell short of break-even — grossed 1.9× 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).
Worldwide gross
$47.1M
US & Canada: $46.8M — 99% of worldwide · International: $236K (1%)
Opening weekend: $6.4M — 14% of its US run. It had legs — it kept earning long after opening weekend.
