The Bridge (2006)

This is an interesting documentary about the Golden Gate Bridge and people that go there to die. The basic rundown of how this is laid out is that footage of the people committing suicide is shown and then they mix in footage of family and friends talking about the person and their life. The concept is good and some of the footage is quite creepy. My complaint is that they would often start one persons story and then bounce around to other people and then come back to the first person. I think it would have played out better if they started one person and finished with them before moving on to the next person. Probably the highlight is the interview of a jumper who survived. It is definitely worth checking out if you are looking for something different. 6 out of 10
