Joel Souza, the director of the movie Rust, has said that although he survived being shot in the shoulder in the same on-set incident involving Alec Baldwin that killed the cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and shocked the industry, a part of him feels like it did not.

When I tell someone it ruined me, I don't mean in the sense that people might generally think," he told Vanity Fair in a lengthy interview, speaking publicly for the first time since the tragedy.
