Synopsis

The Stooges work as phone repairmen but are mistaken for psychiatrists in whose office they are employed. A wealthy man hires them to treat his impulsive young wife, who frequently runs off for submarine rides and similar escapades. The Stooges disrupt a dinner party at their client's mansion, but their antics amuse the wife so much that she is cured, and the Stooges are handsomely paid.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 14

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.
