Synopsis

The Clash was formed in 1976 and became known for its passion, idealism, and political and social fervor. Combining elements of rock, reggae, hip-hop, and funk, the band was at the forefront of the punk movement. This compilation serves as an essential introduction for fans of the influential group and features tracks such as "White Riot," "Complete Control," "Tommy Gun," "Clampdown," and many others. It also includes a theatrical trailer for "Clash on Broadway" and the band's previously unreleased home movie, "Hell W10."

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 7

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.
