Synopsis

Based loosely on the once-popular nursery rhyme, the story takes place during a fair featuring refreshments, entertainment, and various activities. While the crowd watches an act, the titular Tom steals a pig from another little boy and flees. Attempting to hide, he is pursued by the crowd. The pig, however, proves difficult to control, leading Tom, the little boy, and the crowd to run from place to place.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 3

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.
