Synopsis

Mr. Bang, known for his bad temper, is on his way to work. When the trolley takes longer than five seconds to arrive, he walks along the tracks to the Skipper's house and challenges him to a $10 bet that he won't make it to work on time. Inspired by the wager, the Skipper hurries out without finishing breakfast, but he hasn't paid his electric bill and is left without power. His wife improvises by rigging a sail to help him get moving, but a typhoon blows them off course. They end up landing on top of Mr. Bang's train.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 4

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.
