[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How does one "accidentally" shoot two people?  Wouldn't you stop after shooting the first person?

Blanks are only deadly at close range, why was Alec pointing a gun at the these people at such close range?  Why was Alec pointing a gun at the DP and Director anyway?

Lots of questions to be answered here.[/quote]

Likely the camera was positioned directly at the end of the barrel of the gun. Alec would need to point the gun so they can position camera, take light readings, etc. They may have been rehearsing the scene, and told him to fire the blank so they could fine tune camera & light settings.

For every image like this, you have a camera & probably 5-6 people with the gun aimed at them:

This is good information. As someone who has no idea how movies are shot now I can understand how this happened. What a terrible tragedy.[/quote]
