Synopsis

Atop a high-rise building, Gavin, a young hotel manager, is about to end his life. Hollis, a detective whose own world has just been turned upside down, is dispatched to the scene. As Hollis tries to persuade Gavin not to jump, each man begins to open up about his past, and we discover that neither of them is convinced that his life is worth living.

In his Sundance debut, director/screenwriter Matthew Chapman has crafted an intense thriller filled with soulful inspiration. While the film examines the complex notion of what drives us as people, strong performances and immersive characters keep the audience on the edge of their seats. The Ledge is a nuanced character study of love, faith, and convictions that will leave you with a question . . . How far are you willing to go for what you believe in? –Sundance Film Festival

Terrible writing. And how Liv Tyler manages to keep getting work i'll never know.

"are you married?" - "no" - "and what the hell are you doing up here?" not bad, a mix between low psycho & erotic-thriller - but sadly less thrilling..! the ending was brave...

Don't bother with this. The concept and the characters don't work together. Probably the worst in competition Sundance drama I've seen (and to be fair it was decent...just bad for Sundance)

I thought it's going to be more like Sunset Limited. It's not, and for me the Faith dialogue felt shallow, simplifying, and close-minded. Yet again, Patrick Wilson is amazing. This guy should get more roles!
