'Rust' Premieres Amid Controversy and Absence of Key Figures
The indie Western film 'Rust' premiered at the Camerimage Film Festival in Poland, receiving a warm reception despite the absence of Alec Baldwin. The film, which faced controversy and tragedy due to the on-set death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, was completed by director Joel Souza and cinematographer Bianca Cline. The premiere was intended to honor Hutchins' work and wishes, though it faced criticism from Hutchins' mother. The film's completion was part of a settlement to benefit Hutchins' family financially.
