Synopsis

Three Barbecues is a blackened comedy following the same quirky, time-warped characters across three backyard barbecues in one afternoon-to-evening stretch of side dishes and light beer. Vera & Willie Wong host a hot-dog-filled Americana bash with a splash of Red, Light and Brew!, featuring a musical "Parade of Side Dishes" choreographed by the ladies. Stan Smiley & Miss Dinah, an African-American couple, entertain with Stan's "beer-in, bone-in" marinading method and his ragtime song-and-dance routine. Beef & Candy Barklage throw the finale: Beef vies for Griller of the Year as the Griller's World Correspondence Crew broadcasts live. Guests include potato salad pros Chuck & Melissa Gladwell, nemesis The Deviled Egg Nut, gossips April & Koko (with husbands Hank & Virgil), and town's only out gay man, B.J.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 25

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.
