BALDWIN: So many questions

| November 3, 2021 1:00 AM

As an instructor in firearm safety in the Air Force back in ’63-’67, I have a few questions for the third-rate actor Baldwin. Why in hell was he pointing that gun at a photographer who was not an actor in the movie, just doing her job? What made Baldwin feel he was qualified to play with a gun in a cowboy western? He’s not a cowboy and not much of an actor, in my opinion.

I have watched hundreds of westerns with lots of gun play with smoke and fire like in Tombstone, Wild Bill and the Young Guns, as well as many Clint Eastwood and John Wayne movies. It looks like the lack of training was the problem.

I think these B movies are on the way out anyhow. The great actors are gone. Such a loss could have been prevented if only we had more qualified people working these movies. So sad! RD
