Synopsis

Little Pancho Vanilla dreams of becoming a bullfighter, but his mother insists it is impossible. When the greatest bullfighter in Mexico, Don Jose, announces he is coming to town, Pancho boasts to the local women that he is just as good. He attends an amateur tryout but is quickly thrown out because of his small size. The bull easily disposes of the other amateurs, tossing one over the fence. This man accidentally catapults Pancho into the ring, landing him directly on top of the bull. Pancho knocks out the bull, earning great acclaim from the crowd.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 6

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.
