Grizzly Man

"Grizzly Man" is a Werner Herzog documentary exploring the life and tragic death of Timothy Treadwell, who spent thirteen summers living among grizzly bears in Alaska's National Park.

Interesting trivia: 1) The film includes never-before-seen footage shot by Treadwell himself, giving an intimate and sometimes unsettling view of his interactions with the bears. 2) Herzog was initially skeptical about Treadwell but grew fascinated with his complex personality during editing, ultimately crafting a nuanced portrayal rather than a simple hero narrative. 3) The documentary features an original score by renowned composer Richard Thompson, which adds an emotional depth to the visuals and themes of man's relationship with nature.
