Fourteen Hours.

Charlie Dunnigan (Douglas) tries to talk Robert Cosick off the ledge to no avail. Dunnigan tries to relate to the man on the ledge as one human to another. His mother's overwrought, hysterical behavior only upsets Cosick and drives him toward jumping. The divorced father and mother clash over old family issues, and the conflict is played out in front of the police.
