A View from the Bridge is a violent and passionate sortie into the dark side of the New York waterfront. When an Italian-American longshoreman develops inappropriate feelings towards an orphaned relative, their lives fall into a dramatic abyss. Liev Schrieber and Scarlett Johansson turn in sterling performances as an uncle and niece who enter a downward spiral when their relationship is threatened by his obsessions and her attraction to a young man. The Brooklyn Bridge loooms over their self-policed Italian neighborhood like a stone sentinel, but it isn’t enough to guard against misplaced honor and possessive lust. Enter a dangerous world where dark cold water and white-hot emotion create murderous rage in the blue-collar jungle.
