The Tenth Man
Synopsis
During World War II, the Germans arrested people at random from the streets of Paris and, in retaliation for sabotage by the resistance, announced the execution of one in ten prisoners. Lawyer Chavel is chosen as one of the victims and trades places with another man in return for all his possessions. At the end of the war, he returns to his house and attempts to integrate into the family of the man with whom he traded places, while concealing his true identity. Matters become complicated when a stranger arrives claiming to be Chavel.

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.
