Synopsis

John Ellman, a man in difficult circumstances, is wrongfully implicated in the murder of a judge. After being found guilty and condemned to death, new witnesses emerge to demonstrate his innocence. However, it is too late to obtain a reprieve, and Ellman is put to death. A doctor then employs an experimental method to bring him back to life, though the results are not as anticipated.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 17

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.
