Alec Baldwin was handed a loaded weapon by an assistant director who indicated it was safe to use in the moments before the actor fatally shot a cinematographer, court records released Friday show. The AD did not know the prop gun was loaded with live rounds, according to a search warrant.

'It' grosses $51M on Friday. That is the biggest opening day ever for an R-rated film, it has already passed the biggest September opening weekend record in just one day, and it's only $1.5M away from the biggest horror opening weekend ever (Paranormal Activity 3 - $52.5M)

In Friday (1995), Mrs. Parker doesn’t even have a lawn, and is literally just watering dirt. Only took me about 30 rewatches to finally notice.
