Synopsis

While serving as a major in the U.S. Army, Joe Cheever begins a relationship with the daughter of his commanding officer, which results in a pregnancy. Cheever persuades the woman to undergo an illegal abortion, but the procedure goes awry and she dies. To safeguard his career, Cheever falsely implicates Captain Dennison, leading to the captain's downfall. Years later, Dennison's sister, Katherine, marries Army Major Alex Breen. Katherine is shocked to discover that Breen's commanding officer is now Colonel Cheever. Determined to avenge her brother, she becomes consumed with the idea of seeking revenge.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 18

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.
