Alec Baldwin’s Western film Rust has premiered at a festival in Poland, three years after the fatal shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on set.<\/p>\n

The movie debuted at the Camerimage Festival in Poland<\/strong><\/a>, an event focusing on achievements in cinematography, to an audience of a few hundred – a more low-key affair than the typical fanfare of Hollywood releases.<\/p>\n

Director Joel Souza, who was wounded in the shooting, said he hoped the completed film would now be a tribute to Ms Hutchins<\/strong><\/a> – who died after a prop gun held by Baldwin<\/strong><\/a> went off during filming in Santa Fe, New Mexico<\/a><\/strong>, in October 2021.<\/p>\n

Baldwin was charged with involuntary manslaughter and went on trial in July – but the case was dismissed in dramatic fashion during the hearing after the prosecution was accused of concealing ammunition evidence.<\/p>\n

The star did not attend the premiere in Poland.<\/p>\n

Speaking beforehand, Souza said it “wasn’t an easy decision by any means” to continue the film after Hutchins’s death, “but it became important to me and important to her husband that people see her final work”.<\/p>\n

The church scene they were working on when Hutchins was shot has gone from the film, he said.<\/p>\n

“It doesn’t exist anymore. We were never going to finish that… I changed the script and so I wiped that out of it.”<\/p>\n

Cinematographer’s mother criticises Baldwin<\/strong><\/p>\n

Bianca Cline, the cinematographer who completed the film, also attended the event.<\/p>\n

Ms Hutchins’s mother Olga Solovey, who has filed a lawsuit against Baldwin, did not attend and criticised the star for allegedly “unjustly” profiting from the tragedy.<\/p>\n

In a statement issued by her lawyer, Gloria Allred, she said she had always hoped to watch her daughter’s “work come alive on screen” alongside her.<\/p>\n

However, this opportunity was “ripped away”, she said.<\/p>\n

Ms Solovey said Baldwin had not apologised to her and that her pain was increased by his “refusal to take responsibility”. She said there had been “no justice” for her daughter.<\/p>\n

Rust’s armourer Hannah Gutierrez, who was in charge of weapons on the set, was jailed for 18 months earlier this year, after being found guilty of involuntary manslaughter during a trial separate to Baldwin’s. She is appealing the sentence.<\/p>\n

Rust is billed as the story of a 13-year-old boy who, left to fend for himself and his younger brother following their parents’ deaths in 1880s Wyoming, goes on the run with his long-estranged grandfather after being sentenced to hang for the accidental killing of a local rancher.<\/p>\n

The Polish festival’s ticketing website reportedly crashed on Tuesday morning due to high demand for tickets to the world premiere.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
