Synopsis

Flannery, a railway agent who strictly adheres to the rules, becomes embroiled in a dispute with a customer named McMorehouse, who insists on paying 44 cents freight for two guinea pigs, which he regards as pets. Flannery, however, classifies them as pigs, subject to a 48-cent freight charge. He soon begins to regret this decision when the animals start to multiply.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 13

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.
