The Ledge

The Ledge (2011) primarily evokes intense Anxiety and Anticipation as viewers are gripped by the protagonist's precarious situation on the ledge and the ticking clock. A strong sense of Fear is present due to the life-or-death stakes. The dramatic core of the film elicits Sadness and Empathy for the characters caught in this desperate philosophical battle. Elements of Love are woven in through the romantic subplot and the ultimate sacrifice, while Anger and Disturbing feelings arise from the antagonist's manipulative and cruel actions. The film's philosophical undertones also contribute to a pervasive sense of Melancholy.
