The Bridge
The Golden Gate Bridge is an iconic structure; a symbol of San Francisco, the West, freedom ? and something more, something spiritual, something words cannot describe.
The director and crew spent an entire year focusing on the Bridge. Running cameras for almost every daylight minute, they documented nearly two dozen suicides and a great many unrealized attempts. In addition, the director captured nearly 100 hours of incredibly frank, deeply personal, often heart-wrenching interviews with the families and friends of the departed, as well as with several of the attempters themselves.
THE BRIDGE is a visual and visceral journey into one of life?s gravest taboos, offering glimpses into the darkest, and possibly most impenetrable corners of the human mind. more

Who buys this? I wouldn't buy it. I'd say it's worth renting because it is somewhat interesting in that it deals with a taboo subject and a famous American icon. Should they put up a better barrier or leave this beautiful monument...

Having lived in San Francisco and run the Golden Gate Bridge with my running training group dozens of times, you learn just how accessible it is - it's pedestrian- and bike-friendly, with nice wide sidewalks and chest-high fences. You...

- Most Boring Documentary I've ever Seen. Don't waste your money.
This has to be the most boring documentary in the history of the world. The Director obviously doesn't have the balls to show what the documentary was supposed to be about, people throwing themselves off the Golden Gate Bridge. What he...
