Synopsis

A rowdy high school senior is on the verge of losing a $10,000 graduation gift promised by his parents if he manages to complete the year without getting caught in a prank by the principal. When the current principal suffers an accident, the senior takes matters into his own hands by tracking down a drifter to impersonate the new principal and have his disciplinary records erased.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 19

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.
