The Gendarme of Saint-Tropez
Ambitious gendarme Ludovic Cruchot strives to restore order in sun‑splashed Saint‑Tropez—tackling mischievous beachgoers and a string of petty crimes—while his teenage daughter’s fabricated millionaire myth threatens to upend his reputation and his precinct’s credibility.
“Beguiling BATHING BEAUTIES will give you a load of laughs!”
Synopsis
Cruchot, an ambitious police officer, is transferred to St. Tropez, where he faces challenges both professional and personal. He grapples with local crimes such as the recurring issue of nude swimming. At the same time, he deals with the complications of his teenage daughter's behavior, as she attempts to impress her wealthy friends by falsely claiming that her father is a millionaire who owns a yacht in the harbor.

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
Principal cast & crew: 18
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.
