Synopsis

Porky hires Gregory Grunt to guard his chicken coop and prevent a fox from stealing the chickens. Grunt falls asleep, allowing the fox to fill his bag with the contents. Grunt later wakes up and catches the fox, who convinces him to become a partner. As the fox departs, he accidentally locks himself inside the incubator room. The noise draws Porky's attention, and he arrives on the scene.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 4

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.
