Jimmey : No we had enough of your jokes Joaquin : Immediately shot Jimmy

[@beautifullosergirl]

I can’t believe Jimmy exposed this moment for everyone. I work on sets and it’s very common and NORMAL for actors to be in emotional rollercoasters during the filming. Acting is a very emotionally challenging thing, it requiers you to be very vonurable and dive deep into layers of intense emotions and trauma, often on a tight scedule while an entire team is watching and judging. As a film worker you have to keep that in mind and be patient. We aren’t robots EDIT: English is not my first language, sorry for any misspelling
