Synopsis

*Tale of the Star Child* is a two-part television film based on the works of Oscar Wilde. Like the earlier film *The Star Boy* (1958), *The Tale of the Star Boy* was based on two tales from Wilde's collection *A House of Pomegranates*—"The Star-Child" (1891) and "The Birthday of the Infanta" (1888). However, the plot, in contrast to the first screen version, made more significant changes: in particular, added science-fiction elements and completely eliminated magic.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 16

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.
