In Reply to: Grizzly Man. Worst movie of the Decade. posted by Duilawyer on January 15, 2006 at 09:23:20:
I thought Grizzly Man great. How Herzog could approach this subject/topic in such an understanding and compassionate way is very impressive. Treadwell was obviously a troubled and unusual person and seemed like no one I'd care to know or really even know of. By the end of the film though, I was glad I'd experienced the incredible footage Treadwell had shot and the perspective Herzog presented on this truly weird guy. For that - presenting a documentary on a subject I'm unfamiliar with and making it interesting and "enjoyable" - I give Herzog high praise.
That's a successful documentary. Maybe it helps I'm a fan of Herzog and most all his films.The documentary on the making of the music for Grizzly Man included in the documentary DVD Grizzly Man is fantastic too.
Have you seen Incident at Loch Ness? THAT"S a hell of a documentary...
