Re: Grizzly Man

69.9.244.89

I just read Ebert's review of this today, I'm very interested in seeing it but it will never come around to a theatre in my neck of the woods. I found it tragic that he not only cost himself his life, but the life of his girlfriend as well, and that the fatal attack was captured on his video camera with the lens cap still on, with a complete audio account of the ordeal.

I don't understand Treadwell's claim that he was trying to save the lives of these bears that were living in Alaska's Katmai National Park, when the publicity he obviously craved and brought to himself, would bring the bears in close proximity to humans. It does however, focus on Herzog's continuing fascination with common character of the universe, that in his mind, is 'not harmony, but hostility, chaos and murder'.

"I will protect these bears with my last breath," Treadwell says. After he and Amie become the first and only people to be killed by bears in the park, the bear that is guilty is shot dead.
