Synopsis

One of the most famous of the early Italian epics which brought about the change from short subjects to feature films in America. Massive crowd scenes, spectacular sets that rival the sets from Intolerance and an interesting story all add up to fine entertainment from the cinema's early beginnings.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 6

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.
