RE: Alec Baldwin 'accidentally' Kills 1 & injures 1

so you're making assumptions on some actor who got a gun from a stunt coordinator who was not prepared, shot it at the camera (because it was a down the barrel look kind of shot).
He is also the executive producer so he picked out the director and camera people himself.
it's amazing why people thing he would have all the blame or do it on purpose.
actors are mostly just given guns right before the shot and don't check the gun, that is the job of at least 2 other people.

Sort:  

Well I have my own assumptions but I would assume they would at least have some basic checks they do by themselves. I don't recall which movie it was or if it was a PR stunt but there was some video released by a different movie where they said you shouldn't point at someone.

Given how a bunch of the staff walked out, I would of at least checked. It would be good precaution either way and by your words, its fine for an actor to shoot someone just because someone else was suppose to check it? I don't think that is a good way to approach things. I understand you want to rely on others to do part of the work but even blanks on a gun could be dangerous if mishandled.
