Look Who's Talking
A career‑driven single mom fights to raise her newborn alone while navigating a budding romance with an unlikely taxi driver, all under the witty commentary of her infant’s inner voice that threatens to expose every secret.
“He's hip, he's cool, and he's only 3 months old.”
Synopsis
A career-oriented woman, abandoned by a married man after becoming pregnant, gives birth alone and later finds a potential new romance with a taxi driver. The story is told from the perspective of the newborn child, whose viewpoint is conveyed through voice-over narration.

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.

💰 Box-office hit — grossed 40× 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).
