Synopsis
*Blur: The Best Of* is a greatest hits compilation album by the English Britpop band Blur. It was first released in late 2000 and marked the final Blur album released by Food Records. The album was issued on CD, cassette tape, MiniDisc, double 12" vinyl record, DVD, and VHS. The CD version features 17 of Blur's 23 singles from 1990 to 2000, along with the non-single track "This Is a Low." A special edition of the CD included a live album. The DVD and VHS versions contain the music videos for Blur's first 22 singles. The album achieved sustained sales, reaching number 3 in the UK in the autumn of 2000 and number 186 in the US. The album's cover was designed by artist Julian Opie. The painting used for the cover is displayed at the National Portrait Gallery in London, England. It bears a resemblance to the cover of Queen's 1982 album *Hot Space*.

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
Principal cast & crew: 23
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.
