Alec Baldwin

The story is about this grizzled outlaw named Harland Rust, and that was the character played by Alec Baldwin.

From the jump, Baldwin knew that he wanted to be the star in it, and he's also a producer.

This was a real passion project.

The ranch will become the meeting point for 75 crew members, 22 principal actors, and hundreds of extras.

And they're all converging on the set with this singular goal of making the movie rust.

Well, the first days on just about any set are exciting.

And I know Helena shared that.

Helena Hutchins is the cinematographer.

Polina Hutchins was born in Ukraine 42 years ago.

She originally was an investigative journalist before turning to cinematography.

Polina's Instagram bio reads, restless dreamer, adrenaline junkie, cinematographer.

She's married and they have a nine-year-old son.

You can see them on her husband's Instagram.

In 2015, she graduated from AFI, American Film Institute, and then a few years later in 2019, was listed as a cinematographer on the rise.

I wrote and directed a movie called Arch Enemy, and Helena was my cinematographer on that film.

Helena's confidence was a kind of like quiet self-assurance.

She would laugh a lot.

She was a very sort of calculating, collected person who also had a deep reservoir of emotions.

She was, you know, working really hard to establish herself in the film industry, and in particular, really a male-dominated branch of the film industry.

There's this one image I have in my head I think of a lot.
