Things You Can Tell Just by Looking at Her
“Men have their will. Women have their way.”
Synopsis
In California, a group of women face personal challenges as their lives become unexpectedly intertwined. Dr. Elaine Keener, who is the sole caretaker for her aging mother, seeks spiritual guidance from tarot card reader Christine. Christine, in turn, is dealing with emotional turmoil caused by her lover's serious illness. At the same time, a bank manager confronts an unwanted pregnancy, two sisters navigate their romantic pursuits, and a housewife reenters the dating scene.

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
Principal cast & crew: 19
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.
