Synopsis

Grandpa was once a World War II flying ace, but he is now afflicted with Alzheimer's disease. After his family can no longer care for him, he is placed in Twilight Towers, a nursing home. It soon becomes evident that Miss Dandy is managing Twilight Towers with ulterior motives, and it falls to Grandpa and his grandson Jack to attempt a daring escape. If they fail, the consequences could be severe, but if they succeed, Grandpa will have one last opportunity to relive his past and fly his beloved Spitfire once more.

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.
