Sleeping Dogs
Russell Crowe stars as a retired detective with a shattered memory who must confront a decades-old unsolved murder case when a new crime forces him to relive his darkest past.
“Some lies never die.”
Synopsis
Roy Freeman, an ex-homicide detective with a fractured memory, is forced to revisit a case he can barely remember. When a new murder occurs that bears a striking resemblance to an unsolved case from his past, Freeman must confront the gaps in his memory and piece together the truth. As he delves deeper, he uncovers a web of corruption and deceit that may have personal consequences. With the help of a determined rookie cop, Freeman races against time to solve the case before his memory fails him completely.

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
Principal cast & crew: 20
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.
