June 6 - June 7
Grizzly Man
(2005) "I will die for these animals..." Bear-lover Timothy Treadwell frolics with furry behemoths in the Alaskan wilderness, gives them pet names, stares into his camera ranting about the National Parks Service, chases a hat-stealing fox, prays for rain to a "Hindu floaty thing," all seen through his own tapes, re-edited and commented upon by Herzog. "To me, there is no such thing as a secret world of the bears, and this blank stare speaks only of a half-bored interest in food." - WH. "The ultimate nature documentary." - David Denby, The New Yorker.
