George Clooney discussed the tragic on-set shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins during the production of “Rust” on the WTF with Marc Maron podcast, connecting it with the death of his friend Brandon Lee in 1993.
Lee died from an accidental shooting on the set of “The Crow.” Reflecting on these incidents, Clooney emphasized the strict safety protocols he follows, including checking guns before each use.
He criticized the inexperience of the “Rust” armorer and highlighted the difficulties in distinguishing dummy bullets from live rounds.
Clooney called these incidents a combination of preventable mistakes and tragedies. He advocated for greater safety measures on sets, while Eliza Hutton and Alec Baldwin also urged changes to enhance on-set safety following these events.
My Neighbor Ruined the Peach Orchard I Received from My Grandparents, I Ensured She Regretted Her Actions
Lisa inherited her grandparents’ cherished peach orchard after they passed away. It had been a part of her family for over fifty years, filled with memories of joyful harvest parties with friends and neighbors, especially her beloved neighbor Sam, who had taught her woodworking and shared many stories.
Determined to honor her grandparents, Lisa planned to host the harvest party that year. However, her plans were soon disrupted by a new neighbor, Karen, who seemed intent on ruining everything. On the first day Karen moved in, she complained about the peach trees, demanding that Lisa remove them because their leaves were blowing onto her property.
Taken aback by Karen’s harsh attitude, Lisa explained how the trees were important to her and the community. But Karen was unsympathetic and made it clear that she wouldn’t stop until the trees were gone.
Soon after, Lisa began hearing disturbing news from her neighbors about Karen’s actions, including a cruel incident where she had a dog put down by falsely claiming it attacked her child. At their annual peach harvest party, Karen called the police, claiming the noise was too loud, forcing Lisa to end the gathering prematurely. Things escalated further when Lisa discovered that her truck tires had been slashed and her cat was injured, all signs pointing to Karen’s involvement.
One evening, Lisa caught Karen smirking from her porch, further infuriating her. Lisa felt compelled to defend her family’s legacy but needed proof of Karen’s wrongdoing. When she and her father discovered copper nails driven into the peach trees, they set up cameras to catch the culprit.
It didn’t take long to capture Karen on tape, and when they confronted her, she pretended to be remorseful. But Lisa knew she couldn’t let her get away with it. She gathered evidence of the damage and filed a lawsuit against Karen, even launching a website detailing Karen’s misdeeds. The site gained traction, and Lisa reached out to a friend in the news.
With media coverage and community support, protests against Karen’s actions emerged, forcing the authorities to take action. Karen was held accountable for the damage she caused, and she was ultimately forced to sell her house and leave the neighborhood.
With Karen gone, Lisa set about restoring the orchard, excited to host the harvest party once again. The community celebrated together, and Lisa felt proud to continue her grandparents’ legacy. She learned the importance of standing up for what is right and the power of community support in overcoming challenges.
