George Clooney: 'Rust' shooting 'insane'
George Clooney has shared his thoughts on the tragic shooting on the set of the film "Rust."
In an episode of the podcast "WTF With Marc Maron," which released on Monday, the Academy Award winner talked about the incident in which the film's star and executive producer Alec Baldwin accidentally discharged a prop gun with a suspected live round.
The film's director of photography, Halyna Hutchins, 42, was killed and director Joel Souza was injured.
According to Maron, the episode was recorded a week after the shooting occurred.
"Why, for the life of me, this low-budget film with producers who haven't produced anything wouldn't have hired for the armorer someone with experience," Clooney said. "Maybe they weren't even using that gun to do target practice, but they had live ammo with dummies in her pack and that is insane."
The armorer is the person on set who in charge of the weapons and artillery.
The actor said he doesn't know Baldwin well, doesn't believe there was "any intent by anybody to do anything wrong" and called it a "a terrible accident."
Clooney shared the protocols he said people in the industry are supposed to follow.
"Every single time I'm handed a gun on set, I look at it, I open it, I show it to the person I'm pointing it to, we show it to the crew," he said. "Every single take you hand it back to the armorer when you're done, and you do it again.
He said it's been that way since his friend, actor Brandon Lee, was accidentally shot and killed on the set of "The Crow" in 1993.
"After Brandon died, it really became a very clear thing, Clooney said. "Open the gun, look down the barrel, look in the cylinder, make sure."
Clooney said "We need to be better at making the heads of department experienced and know what they're doing."
"Because this is just infuriating," he said. "Every time I get handed a six gun, you point it at the ground and you fire. You squeeze it six times. Always."
Authorities in Sante Fe, New Mexico where the shooting happened are continuing to investigate.
乔治克鲁尼：《铁锈》拍摄'疯狂'
乔治·克鲁尼 (George Clooney) 分享了他对电影《铁锈》(Rust) 拍摄地悲剧性枪击事件的看法。
在周一发布的播客“WTF With Marc Maron”的一集中，这位奥斯卡金像奖得主谈到了这部电影的明星和执行制片人亚历克鲍德温意外发射了一把疑似实弹射击的道具枪的事件。
这部电影的摄影指导，42 岁的 Halyna Hutchins 遇难，导演 Joel Souza 受伤。
根据马龙的说法，这一集是在枪击事件发生一周后录制的。
“为什么，对我来说，这部由没有制作任何东西的制片人的低成本电影不会聘请有经验的人来担任盔甲师，”克鲁尼说。 “也许他们甚至没有用那把枪来做目标练习，但他们的背包里有带假人的实弹，这太疯狂了。”
军械师是现场负责武器和火炮的人。
这位演员说他不太了解鲍德温，不相信“任何人有任何做错事的意图”，并称这是一次“可怕的事故”。
克鲁尼分享了他所说的业内人士应该遵守的协议。
“每次我在片场拿到枪时，我都会看它，打开它，把它展示给我指着它的人，我们把它展示给工作人员，”他说。 “每个人都在完成后把它交给军械师，然后你再做一次。
他说自从他的朋友演员布兰登李在 1993 年在“乌鸦”片场意外被枪杀以来，情况一直如此。
“布兰登死后，事情真的变得很清楚了，克鲁尼说。打开枪，向下看枪管，看看枪管，确定一下。”
克鲁尼说：“我们需要更好地让部门负责人有经验并知道他们在做什么。”
“因为这太令人气愤了，”他说。 “每次我拿到六把枪时，你把它指向地面然后开火。你挤压它六次。总是这样。”
枪击案发生地新墨西哥州圣菲的当局正在继续调查。
