Synopsis

For her birthday, Andy gives Miranda, his sweetheart, her usual gift of candy and flowers. Miranda expresses her disappointment, wishing for something more substantial, like a fur coat, which Andy cannot afford. A con man assures Andy that he doesn't need money, offering to sell him a tracking hound so he can hunt for the fox himself. However, the fox Andy and his dog track has no intention of being caught. Eventually, Andy does manage to capture an animal to make a fur stole, though it is not the fox but something unexpected.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 9

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.
