Ziegfeld Girl

GREATEST MUSICAL EXTRAVAGANZA OF ALL TIME!

DramaMusicalRomance

Synopsis

A girl’s life is altered when she is discovered by Flo Ziegfeld, though not necessarily for the better, as three attractive women experience this after joining a Broadway spectacle: Susan, a singer who must abandon her aging vaudevillian father; Sheila, a vulnerable working‑class woman pursued both by a millionaire and by her faithful boyfriend from Flatbush; and Sandra, a mysterious European beauty whose husband, a concert violinist, cannot tolerate the idea of them escaping poverty by having her appear in revealing costumes.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 20

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.
