Baldwin was an actor in a movie, and movies are make-believe. If I was on the jury I would vote not guilty for Baldwin the actor.

However Baldwin was also the producer, and reportedly neglected safety procedures. Baldwin the producer may be guilty.

I wonder if she told him no before being shot.

Baldwin was an actor in a movie, and movies are make-believe.

Movies are make-believe, but the pertinent firearm was not. It wasn't a dummy gun, it wasn't CGI. Just because it was used in a make-believe setting didn't change it from being a deadly instrument.

I think it quite reasonable to take the stance that Baldwin the actor, as the last line of defense against something like this, and as the responsible party for pulling the trigger, had an obligation to check the rounds in the gun (dummy rounds for movies have a BB inside the case, all you have to do is give them a shake).

“you never point any gun at something you don’t want to destroy”
These actors know the rule, except the idiots.
Remember the idiot that discharged a 44 mag blank into his chest? He died.
They never aim directly at people in movies with real functioning guns, run by people that know about guns.
It is all smoke and mirrors( and editing) to make it look like they did.
