Unnerving

Under discussion:

The Bridge  (2006)

I take a trip across the Golden Gate Bridge about once every couple of months. I enjoy the beautiful view of the city from the bridge and the sheer magnitude of the structure itself. Now that I have witnessed the death that falls from that bridge on a monthly basis, I no longer enjoy the views it has to offer without thinking, sickly, of the many folks who chose to end their lives from this bridge. I first read about this film in the local paper and made a mental note to check it out if I got the chance. I remember the static this film generated due to the subject matter and the rawness of the footage. I never dreamed that his film would affect me in such a somber and sad way. To actually watch people take their own lives right in the broad daylight with people walking right past them was almost too much to watch. Yet I was unable to look away. I recorded this film for a friend and had her watch it. Now I have ruined the fond memories she had of the bay as well. Very disturbing film, but done in a tactful and respectable manner. Worth a watch. Just once though.
