Something Borrowed
Successful attorney Rachel must choose between pursuing her longtime crush—who’s about to marry her best friend—and preserving the lifelong bond that could shatter if she gives in.
“It's a thin line between love and friendship.”
Synopsis
Rachel is a successful attorney and a loyal, generous friend, yet remains single. After one drink too many at her 30th-birthday celebration, she unexpectedly falls into bed with Dex, her longtime crush—who is engaged to her best friend, Darcy. The ramifications of the liaison threaten to destroy the women's lifelong friendship, while Ethan, Rachel's confidant, harbors a potentially explosive secret of his own.

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.

⚖️ Fell short of break-even — grossed 1.9× its budget
Why 2.5×?
Cinemas keep roughly half of every ticket sold, and a wide release’s marketing often costs about as much again as the film — so a movie needs to gross around 2.5× its production budget just to break even theatrically. It’s a rule of thumb, not the studio’s ledger (home video and streaming come later).
