The Edge is a 1997 survival thriller film directed by Lee Tamahori, written by David Mamet, and starring Anthony Hopkins and Alec Baldwin.

Bart the Bear, a trained Kodiak bear known for appearances in several Hollywood films, appears in the film as the bloodthirsty Kodiak, in one of his last film roles.
