Synopsis

Rip Van Winkle is a lazy American man who one day wanders into the Kaatskill Mountains with his dog, Wolf. There, he encounters a strange group of small men who are drinking and playing games. Rip tries some of their mysterious brew and falls into a deep sleep. When he awakens beneath a tree, he is shocked to discover that twenty years have passed and the world around him has changed significantly.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 1

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.
