Review of Grizzly Man (2005) by Jamesw. — 27 Aug 2005
The film left me emotionally off-balance. This response (I believe), is due to the schizophrenic nature of Treadwell's footage. The raw material has a majestic beauty leavened by the natural danger which stands at odds with Treadwell's mercurial behavior.
Herzog's narration is at times, vital to telling the tale, while his opinions give the viewer a point of view to consider while reaching their own conclusions. The overlay of human fraility on a view of the natural world rarely seen in such intimate detail, makes for provocative viewing.
