The film ‘Rust’ will go down in the black history of cinema , a 42-year-old woman, the director of photography Halyna Hutchins, died during its filming. Alec Baldwin was the perpetrator of the shot that killed him, the actor also wounded director Joel Souza. Dantesque moments were experienced on the filming set of this western, nobody could imagine that the weapon was not blank, but that it was real.
In 1993 there was an accidental death that changed shooting with weapons forever, Brandon Lee, the son of the mythical Bruce Lee, died as a result of a gunshot during the filming of the mythical movie ‘The Raven’. The young actor became the last to date to lose his life as a result of a mistake.
The blank pistols cannot be mixed with the real ones , otherwise, it may end in the death of someone accidentally. In this type of film, westerns or action films, people are constantly being fired upon, with which all possible precautions are taken. They are scenes of maximum violence, which, in no case, should end like this.

A person who is characterized by his huge family and by giving love and affection to all his fellow filmmakers. Devastated by what happened, he has been released after giving a statement, the causes are being investigated and why a real gun was on the set.
