There's a documentary called "The Bridge" (2006) by Eric Steele that documents the high number of people who commit suicide by jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco. It also highlights a few of their personal stories. The film was very controversial, as cameras were set up to monitor the bridge, and many actual suicides were filmed. While this is certainly one of the more thought provoking films I have seen, it is certainly very disturbing, and it will change the way you view the Golden Gate Bridge forever.

The Greatest Showman was provoking because the movie and the actual man were two different people. P T Barnum was a terrible man and he was glorified
