Synopsis

Throughout the 1950s, Tab Hunter was one of Hollywood’s leading male heartthrobs. During his years of stardom, however, Hunter kept a personal secret: he was gay. His time in Hollywood was marked by the challenges of maintaining a public image that concealed his true identity, a situation that often placed him in a vulnerable position. In his first-hand account, Hunter describes what it was like to be a studio-produced movie star during the Golden Age of Hollywood and the impact of living as someone very different from the image his studio promoted.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 17

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.
