In 2021, Alec Baldwin accidentally shot and killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins with a prop gun during a rehearsal for the film 'Rust.' This incident sparked a significant media frenzy and legal battles. The film premiered at the Camerimage Film Festival in Poland in November 2024, generating controversy over its sensitivity regarding Hutchins' death. Many criticized the timing of the premiere, while some viewed it as a tribute to her memory. Ultimately, 'Rust' secured a distributor and is set for U.S. release soon. Concurrently, Hulu released 'Last Take: Rust and the Story of Halyna,' focusing on Hutchins' life and legacy.
"We were all there to tell a story, and she was a crucial part of it. Losing Halyna is a loss we will never recover from."
"The film's premiere felt like a tribute to Halyna's work, yet many criticized it as disrespectful given the circumstances surrounding her death."
