how do I find out where this movie will be playing?

Larry King did some interviews about this tonight on CNN. Might be worth watching the re-run if you can catch it.

i think this would be a very good film to watch, its not just people killing themselves, but their families also talking about their lives making them more real to us and perhaps giving up the insight as to why they felt they could go on no longer

Where can I buy or watch this documentary? I keep searching Google with no luck.

I don’t think the film is out on DVD yet. I’ll post here if I find it anywhere though.

What happened to Gene ? How could he do it.

I think that movie is disgusting.

This documentary sounds very interesting. Im interested to watch it or find out where to purchase it. Does anyone know? Sounds like one of those films could possibly learn something from. Real life stories and down to earth approach by the sounds of it.

sam, have you even seen the movie? You’re comment offers nothing intelligent to the discussion.

Hello, i have seen small clips of this movie and like so many others would like to know where i could see it or purchase the DVD. I think there is much to be learned and value to be gained from this type of movie.
Thanks, Don J

I just saw a screening of this film today in Sacramento CA. Very moving, emotional, and courageous film that does not exploit the vouyer aspect of this controversial and taboo subject at all… Left the theatre in tears…

My daughter committed suicide less than a year ago. We are struggling with surviving this horrible event. I’ve only seen clips and read stories on line. I think this movie will help raise awareness to depression and the devastation the surviving families and friends experience in the wake of their loved ones suicide. I also think there is a valid arugument for constructing a suicide barrier on the bridge.

My nephew committed suicide three months ago. Matthew’s death has devastated the entire family. My family is trying to help my sister cope with this tragedy but there is nothing we can do or say that can take away the GUILT. We all wonder what we could have or should have done to help Matthew. I hope this movie raises awareness of depression. I would like to see the movie but cannot find out where I can rent or buy DVD. If anyone knows, please let me know,thanks.

Is this movie available on DVD yet?

Where can I purchase this DVD from?

You know, I have not only spent many yearsof life retrieving these souls from the water, but it’s memory is so close to me. I would like to see this accountance of that year. I would truly like to see the other side of the story.
With compassion.

My name is John and in the early 70’s I climbed the south tower of the Golden Gate bridge.You are asking yourself why:someone would take such a life threatening risk. Simple! it was there.
One of the greatest wounders in the world and I wanted to see what was on top. OH yeah I also knew it would bring the news media and would give me my fifteen minutes of fame; for which I used to wish my brother a Merry Xmas. My brother was in San Quintin State prision. I also was deeply involved in drugs and figured,this would manipulate my using friends into turning me on for a few weeks.I also did not care about life. felt I had nothing to lose, since guys like me born and raised in several of the worst housing project in San Francisco were defeated from birth.Many paths leed to the Golden Gate. Thank God!!!!!! He was watching over me.
Thanks

I think this dvd would be a good thing to watch. does anyone no where it can be purchased?

I think that DVD release will be sometimes in june 2007.

Wikipedia says: “A DVD release by Koch-Lorber Films is set for June 12th, 2007″

Can someone please let me know who Larry King had on as his guests when they had The Bridge episode on his program in October 2006? There were two psychologists that spoke about treatments available for people with bi-polar mental illness. Please help.

I just watch the film and was deeply moved. My brother suffers from schizophrenia and suicide is one of my families greatest worries. This film is not just about the allure and easy accessibility of the bridge, for the purpose of committing suicide. This film is a clarion call for a America’s mental health crisis and the millions of people suffering with depression. There are so few resources for help and most of the time the family is helpless in the battle of the mind of a mentally ill loved one. The Bridge is a very moving, deep film and will open the eyes of many people about depression and the sometimes fatal and tragic consequences.

An amazing film; nicely captured, it takes a look at a side of life that is so ignored, but what people don’t realize is that if they were willing to look at that side, a lot of suicides could be prevented. It’s not until it happens to them that they are willing to see. Very triggering if you have often thoughts of suicide, so don’t watch it if you do.

my husband committed suicide and the film allowed us to see the others left behind went through the same range of emotions as we did. We have ordered our copy as soon as it is released in June. Thanks for helping us to realize what we go through is OK

My son was 22 years old and suffered from major depression with psycosis. Two months ago he jumped to his death from the Sunshine Skyway Bridge in St. Petersburg, Florida. I can honestly say that I would not ever be able to view this film because every minute of the day I struggle with the vision of my son jumping to his death. I cannot begin to tell you of the devestation and the suffering to families and friends left behind not to mention the deep pain a person has to be in to committ such a violent act against themselves. I hope this film is a real eye opener. In Loving Memory of My Son Frank. “Where shall we find a better son or kinder brother or truer friend?”

I watched the DVD the one guy who moved me was the guy by the name of Gene
I wished I could of met him and helped him He seemed like a cool dude who was just simply confused and needed help it was a shame to see him jump something I will never ever forget

Saw this on IFC. First was shocked that someone would do a film on this. Watching it gave me some insight on friends I have lost this way. Upsetting but well done documentary.

other than buying the dvd, is there any way to see this film?

You can watch it on quicksilverscreen.com

An awesome documentary.

This was a very well made documentary that definitely makes you realize that life just isn’t that bad.
