So i was watching the documentary about Halyna on the set of RUST...My whole perspective has changed
Armorer Hannah looked at the bullets in the prop gun and then had the director look at it. They looked like fake bullets and both parties were experienced. Then it was handed to Alec and then he was told what to do, with Halyna standing 6 inches from the gun. Bang!
I equate this with someone in a movie holding a detonator with dynamite attached to a vest they are wearing. someone askes them to test the denotator to make certain that this will cause the lights to go on (on the vest) to make sure it looks good. then actor hits detonator and the set blows up.
How the hell does anyone see this as an excuse to blame the actor? He had to go to court twice for this when he was without a doubt without blame.
The news lied about the facts the entire time. everything i read was so slanted to make it sound like he did it on purpose. Even if he had in fact, checked the gun when it was handed to him, it wouldn't have made a difference. they looked like fake bullets.
