Synopsis

A mountaineer loads a shipment of moonshine whiskey onto his horse-cart and heads out to make a delivery. After he departs, a revenue agent arrives at the mountaineer's house to stake it out. The agent soon witnesses whiskey being exchanged for corn. He immediately goes to alert other revenue officers, who arm themselves with rifles and begin an immediate search for the moonshiner's still.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 3

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.
