Synopsis

Dick Mentor's wife is killed in an auto accident while deserting her husband for another man. Soon after, their child dies, which leaves Dick a confirmed woman hater. Betty, an attractive flirt, learns that Dick is coming to visit and bets Hugh, an admirer, a kiss against a horse that she can win the misogynist's love. By masquerading as a charming twelve-year-old, Betty captivates Dick, but in the process, falls in love with him and is afraid to admit the hoax.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 12

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.
