Paul Gross, star of the non-gunless movie Gunless, told theĀ Edmonton Journal he’d swing his Colt 45 around on his finger—when he wasnāt pointing itĀ at unsuspecting cast members whilstĀ practicingĀ his quick draw. ā’Usually thereās a code of etiquette on a set where you have guns, and I think I violated every rule there was,’ Gross said with a mischievous grin. ‘I donāt know why people put up with me, but they did.’ā Students of the cinematic genre know that at least two celluloid stars died from mishandling prop guns that fired blanks. In this case, Paul Gross managed to do the near-impossible: endanger people with a completely unloaded gun.
