According to foreign media news on November 3, 200 hollywood film and television photographers signed a statement calling for a ban on the use of real guns and live ammunition on the film set. At the end of October, a major accident occurred on the set of the new film "Rust", starring Alec Baldwin used a prop gun to fire during filming, when the gun was shot with live ammunition, the film's cinematographer Halyna Hutchins was shot and killed, the film said it was a gun failure.
The statement said that the death of hutchins is an avoidable oversight, "we hope not to put ourselves and our crew in such an unnecessary fatal situation", indicating that the role of usable firearms in filming can be replaced by non-usable firearms and special effects. He also said that this tragedy cannot be in vain, "We will not wait for the industry to change, we have the responsibility to influence the occurrence of changes in the industry with ourselves." Said that if Hutchins had witnessed a similar tragedy before her death, she would have taken similar action to call for change.
And this accident left Baldwin with psychological trauma. Recently, he made his first appearance after the accident, and his mood still cannot be calmed. He said Harina was his friend, reluctant to talk about accidents, sadly described 'this is a one in a trillion chance', and that being watched by the media for days caused considerable pressure on his family.
Alec Baldwin's wife, Hilarya, confessed that she was worried that his post-traumatic stress disorder was too severe to know how long it would take to come out of the shadows. Hilalia said she was also out of balance when she first heard about the tragedy, driving with children, not knowing where to go, just wanting to escape all attention and calm her heart as soon as possible, and finally they stopped in Manchester, a ski resort town in Vermont, where Alec later went to meet his family.
It is reported that 200 photographers who signed the joint statement, including Greg Fraser ("Dune"), Rachel Morrison ("Black Panther"), Ed Lachman ("Carol"), Alice Brooks ("In the Heights"), issued a joint statement through greenland's ins, calling on unions, film and television producers and legislative personnel to take immediate action to ban the use of firearms in film shooting.
