Vixo S @vixo_six Jul 6 Grizzly Man is a beautiful and delicate documentary because it does not reduce Timothy Treadwell to a simple idea. Werner Herzog observes him with respect, but also with distance, showing a man who found in the bears an emotional refuge, a mission and perhaps a way to escape his own reality. The film recognizes the sincerity of his love for animals, while also revealing the risks of confusing healing with isolation. Its greatest power comes from the connection between Treadwell and Herzog, two perspectives that never met in life but speak to each other through the footage. It is a moving film about nature, loneliness, limits and the difference between loving something and truly understanding it.

Somehow, wildlife will always flip the script back to nature as intended as it did here. FAFO See more After C. @A.T.C Apr 15 Wow! This was up close and personal, he really loved cared for the bears. This movie captured his courage and dedication and respect for the bears. See more David R @DavidRankin Mar 1 I really enjoyed this. Sad but real. Amazing ability to fit in with the bears. Seems like a self proclaimed prophecy. Nature has a way. See more Tom F @RT55173143 Feb 7 I totally slept on this until noticing it in NYT’s list of best movies of the century. Timothy Treadwell is a bit of a jerk but a fascinating documentary subject. Werner Herzog’s narration sounds like self parody but is totally absorbing.

He did manage to stay safe for years while behaving like a Touron. See more Read all reviews
