Alec Baldwin’s ‘Rust’ Sets World Premiere at Camerimage Festival
The premiere and a filmmaker panel will take place three years after the accidental on-set death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins
“Rust” tells 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 he’s sentenced to hang for the accidental killing of a local rancher. Hutchins was a highly regarded upcoming talent, with credits including 2020’s “Archenemy,” 2020’s “Blindfire” and 2019’s “Darlin’.” She was posthumously awarded honorary membership in the America Society of Cinematographers. In the aftermath of Hutchins’ death, star and producer Baldwin, who was handling the prop gun at the time of the accident, was charged with manslaughter but the case was dismissed on the grounds that the prosecution had failed to turn over evidence.
