‘Rust’ to Make World Premiere at Camerimage Film Festival (Without Alec Baldwin)

The indie Western will be unveiled before the public three years after the tragic on-set death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins — but its star and producer will not be in attendance.

Appearing alongside the director will be Stephen Lighthill, Huchins’ mentor from her student days at the American Film Institute, and Bianca Cline, the cinematographer who stepped in to finish the movie after a wrongful death lawsuit was settled. But criminal charges also followed: Rus t’s film armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed was convicted of involuntary manslaughter and sentenced to 18 months in jail, while first assistant director Dave Halls took a plea deal for negligence with a deadly weapon. Over the years, Camerimage has hosted and celebrated scores of prominent filmmakers — names like Alfonso Cuarón, Ang Lee, Ken Loach, David Lynch, Quentin Tarantino, Denis Villeneuve, Andrzej Wajda, Peter Weir and Wim Wenders, among many others.
