I wonder if he'll have to face the music or if this will be swept under the rug. He should be facing manslaughter and assault with a deadly weapon at a minimum [Reply]

I would imagine any charges will be given to the prop guy on set. [Reply]

The prop guy wasn’t in a union? Holy shit. Here’s Alec Baldwin, a pro-union guy if ever there was one, working on a set that hired non-union help and this happens. The producer is the money guy, as I understand it. That asshole, whom ever he might be, ought to be the one held responsible for this shit. [Reply]

Avoiding the unions is the whole reason they leave California to make movies. For low-budget it's probably their only option.
If they're driving a company truck, teamsters get paid from the moment they walk out their front door to the moment they get back home. Must be pretty sweet.
My friend is a production manager for commercials. We bumped into a head teamster that works on a lot of her shoots one night at a restaurant. You could just tell by every bit of body language in the interaction that he was essentially her boss, even though technically she was his boss. Dude even had a gold chain and black turtleneck, looking like a mob boss, with the attitude to match. He knew he was the shit. [Reply]
