Synopsis

When a prominent newspaper accuses wealthy socialite Connie Allenbury of being a home-wrecker, she responds by filing a multi-million-dollar libel lawsuit. The publication's overburdened editor-in-chief, Warren Haggerty, is forced to find a way to counter her claims. His stressed fiancée, Gladys Benton, and his charismatic friend, Bill Chandler, soon become involved in a plot to undermine Connie, leading to a series of amusing and unforeseen consequences.

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.
