Triple Cross
“MASTER-CRIMINAL! SUPER-SPY! AND ALL TRUE!”
Synopsis
Eddie Chapman, a safecracker serving time in a prison on the island of Jersey, finds himself in a precarious situation with the arrival of the Nazis. Demonstrating skill in navigating complex circumstances, Chapman persuades the Germans to employ him as a spy against the British. Upon returning home, he successfully convinces the English authorities to utilize him as a double agent, securing a full pardon in the process.

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.
