## Resource

Alec Baldwin faces the camera in a raw, emotional new documentary, “The Trial of Alec Baldwin,” diving into the harrowing aftermath of the 2021 set shooting that killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins. The film explores Baldwin’s shock, guilt, and confusion as he grapples with being thrust into a media firestorm — his public persona amplifying the tragedy. With exclusive access to Baldwin during his legal battle, director Rory Kennedy captures the rollercoaster of charges, dismissals, and courtroom drama, including Gutierrez-Reed’s conviction and Baldwin’s eventual acquittal due to withheld evidence. But beyond the headlines, the film centers on Hutchins’ devastating loss — a haunting reminder of the human cost behind the headlines. Set for theaters October 1, it promises an unflinching look at grief, justice, and the vortex of public scrutiny.
