I read a comment by some veteran action movie actor (can't remember who) saying that the safety-conscious directors he's worked with have taken a few moments before a scene where a weapon is going to be fired at someone to gather together the shooter, the target, and anyone else in the line of fire to show them that the weapon contains only blanks.
The more I read about this incident, the clearer it is that those in charge of this production were only really concerned with getting the filming done as cheaply and as quick as possible.
History has repeated itself within the film industry
