Miller’s Time : The Producers

Share via

After reading “Such a Production,†by Robert W. Welkos (Dec. 8), I now have a better understanding of the multiplicity of movie credits.

In viewing the credits following theatrical and TV movies, it seems to me that everyone who had anything to do with the production, however remote, gets named. I do not believe I have yet seen a credit for the person who provides the portable johns for location scenes but expect to do so soon.

I would also like to add that the vast majority of viewers could not care less who did this and who did that in the production. Most of the credits are just an ego trip for the person named. The persons in charge of credits would do a much greater service to the viewers if they paid greater attention to the various actors and actresses, with pictures of them in their respective costumes, and give us reasonable time to read the credits.
