Synopsis

Billy Wyatt, a former high school and minor‑league baseball player, receives a telephone call from his mother informing him that his former child‑sitter—and later, in his teens, his first love—Katie Chandler has died. Wyatt returns home to address the tragedy, recalling his childhood with his father, Katie, and best friend Alan Appleby.

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.
