The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare
A daring British commando team, led by Gus March-Phillipps, embarks on a high-stakes covert mission to sabotage Nazi supply lines in Spanish-controlled Fernando Po, racing against time to disrupt U-boat operations and prevent a potential Allied collapse.
“Discover the first special forces mission in history.”
Synopsis
During World War II, the British Army assigned a group of competent soldiers to carry out a mission against the Nazi forces behind enemy lines. A true story about a secret British WWII organization — the Special Operations Executive. Founded by Winston Churchill, their irregular warfare against the Germans helped to change the course of the war, and gave birth to modern black operations.

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.

📉 Underperformed — grossed 0.5× 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).
