Synopsis

Uncle Frank is a documentary directed by Matthew Ginsburg, who trailed his 85-year-old great uncle Frank Pour on his musical journey through his golden years. Frank lives in the once booming mill town of Rome, N.Y., with his wife of 39 years. A machinist who was forced into retirement, Frank taught himself to play keyboards and volunteered his vocal talents to a nearby nursing home. Soon, he was touring all of them in the area, becoming a local hero in the process.

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.
