Synopsis

Errol Morris's early documentary interweaves random conversations he filmed with the genuinely eccentric residents of Vernon, Florida. Among the examples are a preacher delivering a sermon focused solely on the definition of the word "Therefore," and an obsessive turkey hunter who speaks reverently about the "gobblers" he enjoys tracking and killing.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 11

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.
