Just watched The Departed. (I know, where the hell have I been?).
The scene at the Trooper funeral jumped out at me. It is when they are firing the ceremonial shots. They are showing Matt Damon, Baldwin, and a bunch of others in the frame during one of the shots. They ALL flinch pretty good at the sound of the guns. Shoulders jump up and everything.
I may be wrong, but I assume most people who are around guns, at ranges, shooting, etc. stop flinching at some point. I still do once in a while but I don't get to shoot very much.
Am I wrong, is it just a reaction built in or do you become accustomed?
I realize they are all actors, probably with little firearms experience, and hence the flinching. But, it jumped out at me as one of those inauthentic scenes. They should have recut it or something.
