grizzly man

I saw Grizzly Man tonight.

It’s a documentary about bear activist Timothy Treadwell who lived among bears in Alaska for 13 summers. He called them and his friends and repeatedly tells bears that he loves them. He and his girlfriend eventually get eaten by a bear.

This is nutso German director Werner Herzog’s take on the Treadwell story, assembled largely Treadwell’s own footage.

This movie is pretty intense. It’s definitely an interesting study of one man by another interesting man. There’s some amazing bear and wolf footage. It doesn’t have a happy ending.
