新墨西哥州阿尔伯克基——一名工作人员说，她过去曾就这位助理导演的安全问题提出过担忧，当局称，这位助理导演无意中将杀死一名电影摄影师的道具枪交给了演员亚历克·鲍德温。
道具制作人、持有执照的烟火技师玛吉·戈尔在一份声明中说，她向的执行制片人提出了内部投诉Hulu因担心助理导演戴夫·霍尔(Dave Halls)在片场的行为，该片于2019年上映。格尔在周日的电话采访中说，霍尔无视武器和烟火的安全协议，并试图在监管烟火技术员在片场失去意识后继续拍摄。
霍尔斯没有回复寻求置评的电话和电子邮件。
戈尔说，本周的致命枪击事件和她以前的一些经历表明，更大的安全问题需要解决。她补充说，在代表电影和电视工作者的工会与一个主要制片人团体正在进行的合同谈判中，船员的安全和福祉是首要问题。
“这种情况与戴夫·霍尔斯无关。...这绝不是一个人的错，”她说。“这是一场关于片场安全以及我们试图用这种文化实现什么的更大对话。”
周四，鲍德温在电影《铁锈》的新墨西哥片场发射了一支道具枪，杀死了42岁的哈林娜·哈钦斯，并打伤了站在她身后的导演乔尔·苏扎。
根据法庭记录，鲍德温使用的枪是一名枪支专家或“军械师”放在大楼外排练现场的手推车上的三把枪之一。法庭文件显示，霍尔斯从推车上抓起一支枪，递给鲍德温，并大喊“冷枪”，表示武器是安全的。但根据记录，里面装满了实弹。
鲍德温，63岁，因在《三十摇滚》和《寻找红色十月》中的角色以及他对前总统的印象而闻名唐纳德·特朗普在《周六夜现场》节目中，他形容这起谋杀是一场“悲惨的事故”
Goll说这不应该发生，因为“有太多的步骤需要你去经历...它到达那里的可能性应该是不可能的。”
演员雷·利奥塔同意对枪支的检查通常是广泛的。
“据我所知，他们总是检查它，这样你就可以看到，”利奥塔周日在新港海滩电影节的采访中说。“他们把它交给你拿枪指着的人，他们把它交给制片人，他们向在场的任何人展示它不起作用。”
Rust Movie Productions尚未回复多次寻求置评的电子邮件。
鲍德温是《铁锈》的制片人，他周六在圣达菲的一家酒店会见了哈钦斯的丈夫和9岁的儿子，这位演员在拍摄期间一直住在这家酒店。在《纽约邮报》发布的一张照片中，可以看到鲍德温和哈钦斯的丈夫拥抱在一起。
周日在南加州为哈钦斯举行了守夜活动，与会者含泪拥抱，演讲者呼吁提高电影布景的安全标准。
戈尔在邮件中说，在《走进黑暗》的工作中，霍尔没有召开安全会议，也一直没有按照规定向工作人员宣布片场有枪支。她说，道具助理师傅几次警告霍尔斯，在演员们还没把武器放回道具桌之前就解雇了他们。
然而，她最担心的是，当这位患有糖尿病的主管烟火技师被发现昏迷在椅子上时，她说。霍尔希望在该男子被带离片场后恢复拍摄，尽管现场剩余的烟火技师戈尔没有资格监督计划中的一系列复杂的烟火效果。
“那天最让我印象深刻的一件事是，他在第一频道的广播中喊道，‘嘿，玛吉说我们可以继续前进!’我基本上按下了按钮，这样他就不能在那个频道上向任何人传送信号，同时我大声喊道，‘不，戴夫，我不是这个意思。我们不会那样做的，”她在电话采访中回忆道。
她说，她就那天向布卢姆豪斯制片公司的执行制片人提出了内部投诉。
“据我所知，在我投诉后，什么都没做，”她在一封电子邮件中说。
她写道:“我对没有更加努力地推动更大的责任和安全感到失望。“我们中的许多人都给对方发信息，想知道同样的事情:我们当时能做些什么来防止悲剧发生吗?”
Crew member who gave Baldwin gun subject of prior complaint
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. -- A crew member says she has raised safety concerns in the past about the assistant director who authorities say unwittingly handed actor Alec Baldwin the prop gun that killed a cinematographer on a film set.
Maggie Goll, a prop maker and licensed pyrotechnician, said in a statement that she filed an internal complaint with the executive producers ofHulu’s “Into the Dark” series in 2019 over concerns about assistant director Dave Halls' behavior on set. Goll said in a phone interview Sunday that Halls disregarded safety protocols for weapons and pyrotechnics and tried to continue filming after the supervising pyrotechnician lost consciousness on set.
Halls has not returned phone calls and email messages seeking comment.
This week's fatal shooting and some of her previous experiences point to larger safety issues that need to be addressed, Goll said, adding that crew member safety and wellbeing are top issues in ongoing contract negotiations between a union that represents film and TV workers and a major producers' group.
“This situation is not about Dave Halls. ... It’s in no way one person’s fault,” she said. "It’s a bigger conversation about safety on set and what we are trying to achieve with that culture.”
Baldwin fired a prop gun on the New Mexico set of the film “Rust” Thursday, killing 42-year-old Halyna Hutchins and wounding director Joel Souza, who was standing behind her.
The gun Baldwin used was one of three that a firearms specialist, or “armorer,” had set on a cart outside the building where a scene was being rehearsed, according to court records. Halls grabbed a gun off a cart and handed it to Baldwin, indicating that the weapon was safe by yelling “cold gun," court papers say. But it was loaded with live rounds, according to the records.
Baldwin, 63, who is known for his roles in “30 Rock” and “The Hunt for Red October” and his impression of former PresidentDonald Trumpon “Saturday Night Live,” has described the killing as a “tragic accident.”
Goll said it should not have happened because there are “so many steps that you have to go through ... that the possibility of it even getting there should be impossible.”
Actor Ray Liotta agreed that the checks on firearms are usually extensive.
“They always — that I know of — they check it so you can see,” Liotta said in an interview Sunday at the Newport Beach Film Festival. “They give it to the person you’re pointing the gun at, they do it to the producer, they show whoever is there that it doesn’t work."
Rust Movie Productions has not answered repeated emails seeking comment.
Baldwin, who is a producer on “Rust,” met with Hutchins' husband and 9-year-old son Saturday at a hotel in Santa Fe where the actor had been staying during filming. Baldwin and Hutchins' husband can be seen embracing in a photo published by the New York Post.
A vigil for Hutchins was held Sunday in Southern California, where attendees exchanged tearful hugs and speakers called for heightened safety standards on film sets.
Goll said in her email that during work on “Into the Dark,” Halls didn't hold safety meetings and consistently failed to announce the presence of a firearm on set to the crew, as is protocol. The assistant prop master admonished Halls several times for dismissing the actors before they had returned weapons to the props table, she said.
She became most concerned, however, when the supervising pyrotechnician, who is diabetic, was found unconscious in a chair, she said. Halls wanted to resume filming after the man was removed from the set even though Goll, the remaining pyrotechnician on site, didn't have the qualifications to supervise the complicated series of pyrotechnic effects that were planned.
“One of the things that stuck out to me most about that day is the fact that he called out on radio over channel one, ‘Hey, Maggie says we can keep going!’ and I basically held the button down so he couldn’t transmit to anyone else on that channel while I yelled out, ‘No, Dave, that’s not what I said. We’re not doing that,’” she recalled in a phone interview.
She filed an internal complaint with the executive producers of Blumhouse Productions about that day, she said.
“To my knowledge nothing was done after my complaints,” she said in an email.
“I am gutted at not pushing harder for greater accountability and safety," she wrote. "Many of us have messaged each other wondering the same thing: is there something we could have done then that would have prevented the tragedy?”
