Over three years after the accidental on-set death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, Alec Baldwin's Western film “Rust” received a polite response during its controversial premiere Wednesday at the EnergaCamerimage festival in Toruń, Poland.
The audience clapped through the film’s closing credits, strengthening their applause when a dedication to Hutchins appeared.
The premiere opened with Camerimage director Marek Żydowicz asking the audience to stand for a moment of silence for Hutchins.
Cinematographer Rachel Mason, Hutchins’ friend who made a documentary about the completion of the film, then made an emotional speech.
Additionally, AFI launched the Halyna Hutchins Memorial Scholarship Fund.
