The bizarre thing is that this common sense thing is absolutely not true on a movie/TV set. As crazy as it seems, it's already part of case law that an actor is not legally responsible to check -- and being an actor on set is a valid excuse to someone pulling the trigger without checking.craig11152 wrote: ↑Wed Oct 27, 2021 12:29 pmIf Baldwin isn't legally liable for a homicide he certainly is morally responsible. Somebody telling you a gun is unloaded IS NEVER NEVER NEVER an acceptable excuse for pulling the trigger. You always need to confirm. Either you physically check it yourself or watch somebody check it before they hand it to you.
With CGI and other effects readily available rather inexpensively these days, I question why in 2021 having a gun that fires is even allowed as part of any movie / tv production. Even guns loaded with "blanks" can be deadly and aren't necessary any more.
