The Trial of Alec Baldwin
Co-Producer, Editor
Director Rory Kennedy explores how the accidental on-set death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins during the filming of Rust in 2021 sparked a troubling ecosystem of opportunistic paparazzi and ambitious prosecutors seeking influence and personal gain. Alec Baldwin—beloved for his talent yet known for his imperfections and occasional temper—quickly becomes a focal point for jealousy, online outrage, and relentless scrutiny as he struggles to shield himself and his family from a culture increasingly numb to empathy. Kennedy’s levelheaded approach keeps the Hutchins family’s loss at the center while guiding viewers through a gripping final section that lays out the startling developments of Baldwin’s New Mexico trial.
