Synopsis

After forty years of dedicated service, Robert T. Ironside, a reformed member of the San Francisco police force, is finally about to enjoy well-earned rest with his wife, Katherine, on their newly purchased vineyard. However, just days after his official retirement, he is approached by officials from the Denver police force, who offer him the temporary position of general manager following the assassination of the previous occupant of the role. Initially hesitant, Ironside eventually agrees, with his wife's consent, to accept the challenge, especially since he is pleased to reunite with Susan, the daughter of one of his former assistants.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 20

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.
