    "What do you mean if I list myself as producer that actually means I
    must defend a tort?"

    Perhaps this will finally put an end to the outrageous Hollywood practice
    of listing three dozen or more producers regardless of the extent to which
    they are management. In this case, there is no question that Baldwin had
    enough of a financial stake and behind-the-scenes control of personnel
    that he was management.

    Neverheless, the plaintiff claiming P.I. is the gaffer Serge Svetnoy?
    Fuck the money-grubbing bastard seeking noneconomic damages as a
    witness. I read about it in the newspaper, so I must be able to sue too.

    (As I noted in a previous recent thread "Layers of Rust",in the case of
    THIS film there are NINETY-SEVEN credited "executive producers" (including Matthew Hutchins under the terms of his settlement),per IMDb credits).

    they are management. In this case, there is no question that Baldwin had enough of a financial stake and behind-the-scenes control of personnel

    The article also mentioned another lawsuit where Gloria Allred is
    representing the mother of Halyna Hutchins.
