GRIZZLY MANRenowned nonfiction director Werner Herzog chronicles the tragic and untimely death of outdoorsman Timothy Treadwell, who devoted his life to studying grizzly bears living in the Alaskan wilderness -- only to have one of them maul him to death. Pieced together mainly from Treadwell's own video footage, this fascinating documentary goes deep into the wilderness of one man's mind to uncover how he spent his final days.
I have to say, I was really disturbed by this guy. And I couldn't help but laugh at him as well at times . His behavior was so bizarre, really that of a psychotic break. And for the life of me, I couldn't see exactly what it is that he felt he was doing to protect these bears.
And, I have to admit, I suspect that Will Farrell emulated this man when he played his character in Elf, because they were almost identical, down to the tone of voice and mannerisms. Anyway...
Please, readers, weigh in on your thoughts. I am interested to know what you think if you know of this story or have seen this film.
