How do they get babies to cry in movies at the right time? Do they have a specialist on-set with a tiny hammer or an especially ugly face?

That's one ugly ass baby. Disgusting.

There's this thing called editing. There is also sound-editing.

These fuckers cry all the time, I suspect its much harder to make them not cry when strangers hold them

nah, in some scenes you clearly see the baby bawling, iirc child actors can only be on set for a few hours a day so you can't just count on them crying at the right time when the right actors are there as well. There has to be someone provoking it, people don't like to burn cash on a baby's whim.
You are right that some people do that thing where the baby is seen only from the back or with face obscured like in a crib or something, but that's almost always less effective than showing a baby actually cry and feels cheap like when they did it on Breaking Bad. It's the cgi deer of emotional string-pulling.

I used to make my baby brother cry all the time when he was tiny, all you need to do is pretend to cry and they cry as well.

In the old days, they'd give the kid a toy and then snatch it away from them when it was time. Nowadays idk. Mostly edited-in sounds, or the kid is crying anyway because he's

They show them a photograph of people funding the movie. All the flames and blood scare the little ones.
