Synopsis

Ollie, a love-struck private, is subjected to harsh treatment by his unsympathetic lieutenant at reveille. The regiment's colonel hopes to arrange a marriage between his daughter and the lieutenant, but the daughter is instead smitten with Hardy, a man with a round face who is himself in love with someone else. Hardy is imprisoned for disobeying orders, later escaping with the help of his sweetheart and a minor act of physical force when he uses his large stomach to bump the guard. The film concludes with a chase scene in which all characters achieve their desires.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 7

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.
