‘Rust’ Pays Tribute to Late Cinematographer Halyna Hutchins in Closing Credits


'Rust's' closing credits include a tribute to Halyna Hutchins, who died in an on-set gun accident while making the movie in 2021.

The screening was preceded by a short introduction by director Joel Souza, who was injured in the accident; and cinematographer Bianca Cline, who completed the movie (and has a “cinematography by” credit in the film.) Producer and star Alec Baldwin — who was handling the prop gun at the time of the accident — was not invited to attend the festival, according to an event spokesperson. Festival director Marek Żydowicz responded with a statement, which in part read, “The sole purpose of this screening is to honor Halyna’s work, talent and artistic achievements.”
