The Bridge (opening scenes)

[sunrivermama]

at any given moment, each of us are struggling with, something. Some struggling immensely, with the idea that they are in a place called terror that is unfathomable for most of us. Cry....I have always believed that each and every one of us are all trying valiantly, in this world, trying our best and each of us with our own burdens and sorrows, so lets all be extra kind to everyone.....your smile will make a huge change

A movie about peope comitting suicide?? :o this world is crazy!

[justcallmesimon]

@jesperH9 - Why not? Yes the world is crazy, but are we not allowed to talk about the craziness?

This film is actually very very good and really helped me understand the loneliness and suffering of people who are struggling with suicidal thoughts. Maybe you don't need that help, or maybe you would just as soon not confront this subject, but I found the film to be really insightful in tackling what is a very tough subject.

[jesperH9]

@justcallmesimon well thats a good point, your right. but i bet most of the viewers on this ideo just wants to see bloody horrific scenes. thats what i mean with my first comment.

Go to 1:35. That guy with the long black hair jumped later on. It's weird they put video of him just walking the bridge.

[HelbaRion]

He jumps off later on in the movie.

repulsively disgusting comments on such a sad topic

[NARCODOLLARS]

LIFE IS NOT EASY !!! this is the easy way out of this stuff!!! RIP to those who jumped. Some people cant jump other can....what the heck...its their FREE Choice.

[littlebigbrain]

Life is not easy for some but for others it is laid on a plate. Paris Hilton for one. Life is made harder for those by those that rob you of your real wealth. Just see how many the Bankers have killed by their greed.

[ko01lo3k0]

[ringoringo]
