THR: RUST arrmorer gets 18 months for Invountary Manslaughter. Apr 15, 12:09
Considering how careless the armorer sounded, might just get Alec off the hook {nm} Apr 15, 12:27
He shouldn't have been charged in the first place. {nm} Apr 15, 12:39
He didn't pull the trigger, but uncocked the gun. Michael Massee wasn't charged for shooting Brandon Lee. {nm} Apr 15, 13:21
What is different here is Alec Baldwin was an active hands on day to day producer on this project. {nm} Apr 15, 13:40
Was The Crow producers criminally charged? It's literally the armorer's job, not the producer. {nm} Apr 15, 13:57
I actually spoke to the DP of The Crow shortly after the incident on Rust and he remarked... Apr 15, 14:16
Actually same with The Crow "there was just not enough money to do it safely," {nm} Apr 15, 14:23
That's a really good interview. Some of the same issues, just Rust was (allegedly) much more egregious in several areas. {nm} Apr 15, 14:22
It's also different times... and Brandon Lee was on-camera talent who was literally being shot in the scene... Apr 15, 14:47
They were rehearsing a scene where he points a gun at the camera. {nm} Apr 15, 14:58
There is a decent BI article on the differences between the incidents (at link) Apr 15, 14:17
Yes, producer was liable for wrongful death, which was settled. {nm} Apr 15, 14:31
Just as Shannon Lee also settled with The Crow's producers. {nm} Apr 15, 14:34
So Who Saw What Last Week?...Argylle (B) {nm} Apr 15, 11:43
Civil War (C -- beneath all the provocative imagery and premise, the characters and their stories are paper thin) {nm} Apr 15, 11:48
it's a testament to Plemons that he does more with his five minutes than the rest of the leads do for two hours {nm} Apr 15, 12:17
All old movies: Katy Perry, Invincible, Sleeze Lake, The Dark Knight (cinema rerelease), and Escape from Pretoria {nm} Apr 15, 12:07
