What's not understood, is the gun being loaded is only one part of the issue here.
Yes, conceivably Baldwin is not guilty for that.
I remember Dirty Harry, and learned that S&W gave Clint the Model 29 he used in that role. It wasn't a fake, it was a real revolver.
quote:Yeah... Baldwin the producer.
But the gun was NEVER supposed to be fired AT someone. Baldwin did that, and that's the issue.
You're not supposed to point directly at a person, or a cameraman either (it's supposed to be remote-operated).
I think she, as the cinematographer, was trying to frame up the best possible visual angle, and cut safety corners to do so. It was a low budget production, it would have cost money to stage that scene multiple times, to see precisely where you want the camera; or she could stand there, and move around (squat, rise up etc) to see exactly where you wanted it to be.
quote:Another huge sin, based on saving money. I think they were using the owner of the ranch where they filmed, his private collection of guns.
Then to compound that, he hired a shite company to save money to be the armorer and allowed multiple other events to happen that led to the gun being left loaded with a live round.
The "proper" way would be to contract out with a props company, but that would have involved paying them.
quote:He shot at his mark, there happened to be someone in the line of fire. And it turned out to be a loaded gun.
Then he pulled the trigger and shot AT someone.
But I will bet you anything, 99% of this goes on at almost every low budget action or western flick, in the name of saving money (more money you, including cast and crew, get to keep). People keep their mouths shut about violations, in order to make a dollar.
The one difference was the gun having live rounds this time. I'm still curious about that, wondering if someone was setting him up. Maybe the intent to expose what a shitty production he was running and get him fined, and it became worst-case scenario.
Has Jensen Ackles ever spoken up about this? He was in the cast.

He did not shoot at a mark, he deliberately pointed the gun at cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and pulled the trigger.

Again. Baldwin claims over and over and over, he never pulled the trigger.
He is not claiming the gun was supposed to be a blank and he shot at someone with a blank.
Baldwin claims the gun just went off. He swears he never pulls the trigger.
Respectfully, you guys are pulling shite out of your arse.
You may be right and it’s all a coverup so far, but literally no one I’ve seen says that Baldwin was rehearsing and supposed to be blanks. He simply
Claims the gun went off unexpectedly.
