Synopsis

*Tuesday Morning Ride* is based on the short story "A Summer Tragedy" by Arna Bontemps, a Harlem Renaissance writer. Set in the 1930s, the story follows an elderly man and woman—she is blind, and he is a stroke victim—who feel they have nothing left to live for due to the absence of their children. They choose to dress in their finest clothes and embark on a final drive in their car, with no intention of turning back. The film was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Live Action Short Film.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 15

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.
