Synopsis

The Pilgrims, led by Captain Porky Pig, set sail from Plymouth for America. The journey features a series of ocean sailing blackout gags, including a recurring bit between the narrator and the cook, who search for a suitable fish for dinner, a singing trio interrupted by seasickness, and flying fish appearing in airplanes. Then, The Rains Came. A collision with an iceberg is narrowly averted. Land is sighted, and the Pilgrims are welcomed by Chief Sitting Bull.

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.
