Mahoney's Last Stand

A disillusioned city-dweller turns homesteader in the Canadian wilderness, only to face the harsh realities of rural life and the battle to survive his own ideals.

Synopsis

Mahoney's Last Stand is a 1972 Canadian film starring Alexis Kanner, Sam Waterston, and Maud Adams. It follows the story of Mahoney, a city-dweller who leaves urban life behind to become a homesteader, leading to a series of dramatic events. The film is notable for its soundtrack album, also titled Mahoney's Last Stand, created by Faces bandmates Ronnie Wood and Ronnie Lane. The album features guest guitar work by Pete Townshend, who also contributed "special electronic effects" to the film. Both the film and the album were largely overlooked at the time of their release and remain obscure in popular culture.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 9

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.
