Win Passes To The MAN ON A LEDGE Screening In St. Louis

When former NYPD officer-turned-prison escapee Nick Cassidy (Sam Worthington, Avatar & Clash of the Titans) enters the famed Roosevelt Hotel on 45th & Madison in New York City, heads to one of the highest floor and steps out onto the ledge, he threatens more than just his own well-being. A whole city is about to seize up, including some very nervous people with some very big secrets.
Ex-cop Cassidy ‘s heart-stopping decision to stand on the ledge of a high-rise building creates not only a media firestorm, but a delicate situation for hard-living New York Police Department negotiator Lydia Spencer (Elizabeth Banks, The Next Three Days & Zack and Miri Make a Porno), who tries to talk him down while dealing with a departmental rival (Edward Burns, Nice Guy Johnny & 27 Dresses) who believes she has a conflict of interest. But the longer Lydia spends trying to get to the root of Cassidy’s predicament, the more she realizes he could have an ulterior objective.
Might it have something to do with the mysterious project his brother and ardent supporter (Jamie Bell, The Adventures of Tintin & Billy Elliot) is working on with his girlfriend (Genesis Rodriguez, Casa di mi Padre) while Cassidy bides his time on the ledge? Or with the efforts Cassidy’s best friend on the force (Anthony Mackie, Real Steel & The Hurt Locker) is making to help get him down? Or with the behind-closed-doors dealings of a powerful businessman (four-time Oscar® nominee Ed Harris, Pollock & A Beautiful Mind)? As more pieces of the puzzle are revealed over the course of Cassidy’s bold stunt, suddenly the story of one disgraced cop trying to prove his innocence becomes something decidedly more eye-opening. Eventually the stakes become more dangerous than the prospect of one man on one ledge simply losing his balance.

I would do everything I possibly could
I wouldn’t step out on ledge because I’m scared of heights, but I’d do something else, maybe John Q. style.
I would not step out of a window but I would jump out of a moving car lol
I like to talk so I would start there,even if its at a public event.
I think I would do the same thing get out on the ledge they would have to listen to What I have to say
I would talk to them, and urge them to wait and talk to a professional.
Definitely not on a ledge…scared of heights. Other than that, maybe do almost anything else.
Probably anything. Ledge, window, roof,…bring it on!
I would think about something else when the times comes.
I would step out as far as I could because I have have family and friends to live for.
Man I am so scared to death of heights so i dont know what i would do ????? I would love to see the outcome in the movie though.
can’t say I would step on a ledge ( I do not like heights0 but I would fight til I got the results I wanted
i don’t think that stepping out on a ledge will work, although i would like to see how the movie goes. personally, i think it would have to be more of what people used to do to get attention, someitmes sacrifice yourself to get results. look at martin luther king! sometimes death is the greatest way for positive action to continue
I would step out as far as it took to save my life.
I would do the same
I would climb out on a ledge
In situations where you life is on the line, a person is capable of doing incredible feats.You are somehow able to overcome your fears and limitations. I would go all the way out,even with my fear of heights.

If I thought that the only way to get someone to listen to me and save my life was to stand on the ledge of a building then I would do it, I’d be scared to death but sometimes you just do what you have to do no matter what.
I would put my life on the line to save the life I have now.
I could not step out on a ledge unless I had something to hold on to.
I would do anything I had to if my life was on the line. I don’t like heights, but I would do it.
I could not step out on a ledge I’m afraid of heights.
If you ever encounter me in line at one of these sneak previews you’ll have your definitive answer……until then this is the answer…..TO THE MAX

One foot off!
I’m guessing I would do a lot more when placed in a life or death station.
If my life was on the line, I would fight to survive. Hard to say how far I would go not being in that situation.(don’t like heights)
If my life was on the line, I would fight to survive. Hard to say how far I would go not being in that situation.(don’t like heights).
We are creatures designed to survive–It’s survival of the strongest, smartest, or most twisted.
