Synopsis

Bo and Luke Duke, along with their cousin Daisy and moonshine-running Uncle Jesse, work to save the family farm from Hazzard County's corrupt commissioner, Boss Hogg. Their efforts often involve evading authorities in "The General Lee," their 1969 orange Dodge Charger, as they outmaneuver the bumbling antics of Sheriff Roscoe P. Coltrane, the town's law enforcement officer.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

A crew of 305+ credited

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.

⚖️ Fell short of break-even — grossed 2.2× its budget

Why 2.5×?

Cinemas keep roughly half of every ticket sold, and a wide release’s marketing often costs about as much again as the film — so a movie needs to gross around 2.5× its production budget just to break even theatrically. It’s a rule of thumb, not the studio’s ledger (home video and streaming come later).
