I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry
Widowed firefighter Larry must secure his children's future after a bureaucratic snag leaves them unprotected by life insurance, so he convinces his charismatic partner Chuck to enter a civil union—risking their careers, reputations, and personal lives in a high‑stakes battle against an uncaring insurer.
“They're as straight as can be, but don't tell anyone.”

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 2.2× 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).
