Synopsis

Sailors Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy encounter two women in a park and offer to buy them sodas, despite being short on money. Fortunately, Stan wins a jackpot on a slot machine, allowing them to rent a boat and cruise on a lake. Their peaceful outing is disrupted when they tangle with other boaters, resulting in everyone falling into the water.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 15

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.
