About this listen

On October 21st, 2021, actor Alec Baldwin was rehearsing a scene for his new Western film, Rust, when tragedy struck. The gun he was holding wasn’t supposed to have live ammunition. Both the director, Joel Souza, and the director of photography, Halyna Hutchins, were shot. Halyna, a 42-year-old mother and filmmaker, died.


Right from the start, the question on everyone’s minds was this: how did a real bullet end up in a gun that everyone, including Alec Baldwin, thought was a prop? In her new documentary, Last Take: Rust and the Story of Halyna, director Rachel Mason takes us on set to explore who Halyna Hutchins was and what really happened on the set of Rust.
