Synopsis
The Ledge (2011) is a psychological thriller written and directed by Matthew Chapman — watch it online on iFILM, starring Charlie Hunnam, Liv Tyler, Patrick Wilson and Terrence Howard.
Detective Hollis (Howard) arrives on a hotel rooftop to talk a man down from the ledge. The clock is running. As he pieces together what brought Gavin (Hunnam) to that edge, the film rewinds through a collision of people and beliefs: Gavin, an atheist with no patience for pretense; Shana (Tyler), his neighbor and object of his feelings; and Joe (Wilson), her husband — a fundamentalist whose faith becomes something threatening.
Written by Chapman with a genuine interest in the argument beneath the thriller mechanics, The Ledge uses its high-rise setup to frame something less common in genre cinema: a serious, unresolved confrontation between worldviews. The cast handles it well. Watch The Ledge (2011) online on iFILM.
