Seattle International Film Festival 2026: Film #23
Okay, my favourite bridge (and the rest of the theatre too judging by the after-show chatter) was the neo-Venetian Seven Mile Bridge (FL). Worst bridge by far is obviously the Washington Bridge (NJ/NY). Almost cheered when that train left stage right just before the end of the Dubuque-Wisconsin Bridge. And the Astoria-Megler Bridge (OR) looks like a high-school engineering assignment made out of ice lolly sticks perched atop of a couple of mismatched cheese graters. Also smiled at the couple in front of me holding hands throughout - epic date night.
Synopsis: Shots of 8 bridges from the continental United States - the Golden Gate Bridge from Sausalito, California; the Rio Grande Gorge Bridge from Arroyo Hondo, New Mexico; the Edmund Pettus Bridge from Selma, Alabama; the Seven Mile Bridge from Little Duck Key, Florida; the George Washington Bridge from Fort Lee, New Jersey; the Dubuque-Wisconsin Bridge from Dubuque, Iowa; the High Bridge from Valley City, North Dakota; the Astoria-Megler Bridge from Astoria, Oregon.
