Last Light
“One defying the system. One sworn to uphold it.”
Synopsis
Kiefer Sutherland portrays Denver Bayliss, a condemned murderer responsible for the deaths of three individuals, including a prison guard. He entered the correctional system as a juvenile delinquent and has remained incarcerated ever since. He is now awaiting execution. Forest Whitaker plays Fred Whitmore, a death row prison guard who faces difficulties after refusing to participate in the guards' harsh and abusive methods. Nevertheless, something about Denver unsettles Fred Whitmore, and the two develop an unexpected friendship that profoundly changes both their lives.

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
Principal cast & crew: 17
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.
