Damn. I understand the desire to try to let Willis keep working if you think it will make him happy, but, at a certain point you also have to consider the safety of the rest of the people on set…
"In January 2020, actress Lala Kent, a star of Bravo’s “Vanderpump Rules” reality show, was cast as the action hero’s daughter in “Hard Kill.” In one scene, Kent said, Willis’ character was scripted to step in and protect her from villains.
“I’m supposed to think my life is about to end, and then my dad steps in to save the day,” Kent said, describing how her back was to Willis in the scene. Willis was meant to deliver a line that served as Kent’s cue to duck before he fired the weapon at a bad guy. Instead, he shot the gun before delivering the line — and the actress was unable to duck."
“Because my back was to him, I wasn’t aware of what was happening behind me. But the first time, it was like, ‘No big deal, let’s reset,’” she said.
Kent said she asked director Matt Eskandari to remind Willis to say his line before firing the gun.
But on the second take, the same thing happened, Kent said. Eskandari did not respond to calls seeking comment, but a second crew member said he remembered Kent being shaken that day. A third crew member, who also was not authorized to comment publicly, said he recalled a situation in which Willis “did fire the gun on the wrong line.”
watched CODA. i understand why the movie won best picture, and certainly wanted to cry at multiple points in the film. but kinda flabbergasted at the fact that it’s nothing but a teen hs rom com with some whiplash sprinkled over the top, and it’s basically what we all collectively need at the moment.
doh sorry, stupid of me. i’m just browsing https://m.imdb.com/list/ls003501243/ and i just don’t see how it cracks even top 10 of the decade for anyone
maybe Get Out for me, over Birdman. i also really liked The Artist, and Gravity. oh yeah Parasite pretty mind blowing. i feel weird picking war movies, almost like should be separate category, but JoJo Rabbit over Dunkirk for me.
