Phone Booth
A duplicitous New York publicist on the brink of an illicit affair must face a mysterious blackmailer who threatens to reveal his betrayal unless he confesses his crimes, forcing him to risk his marriage and his life to escape deadly consequences.
“No options. No lies. No fear. No deals. Just keep talking.”
Synopsis
A slick New York publicist answers a ringing phone in a public booth and is told that if he hangs up, he will be killed. A small red light from a laser rifle sight confirms the caller's threat.

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.
