Synopsis

Major Briggs, one stiff upper-lipped Brit, receives a hand-to-head treatment in a North African bar. Impressed, he recruits the most skilled American specialists to help him blow up Rommel's most treasured ammo depot. Perilous desert journey awaits them, especially given an inevitable rendezvous with one immoral priest, a German nurse right beside him.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 18

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.
