Since the 1990s, human beings have become extremely optimistic, thinking that the world has been unified, and even said the end of history. Just entering the 21st century, a group of people on the other side of the earth told this group of optimistic people that history is not over, and that human beings are still struggling in the quagmire of hatred. After the Internet entered China, the Chinese sent the first email: Across the Great Wall we can reach every corner in the world. But later the most ironic thing is that the Chinese themselves built the Great Wall of the Internet. Humans seem to be born with romantic feelings. For the protagonist of this film, his greatest romance is that nature is gentle, while humans are cruel. As a descendant of the middle class, society has laid out a path for him to be followed by most people. He should have become a swimming champion and even a Hollywood star, but he has deviated from the track and slipped into the ranks of the losers. As a result, he fled to the paradise he imagined with his desire to perform. In this inaccessible place, he became the god of this land and directed this chaotic life. He named the animals and planned the characters for them. Although many times these actors strayed from his command, he still loved them and hated the humans who abandoned him, although the struggles of human society were so mild compared to this wild land . So he made territory for himself and resented others stepping into his spiritual territory. Unable to break away from human society, he needs to perform his one-man show in front of human society. In this play, he is the director, the leading actor, and the most loyal audience. He was satisfied watching this one-man show, blurring the boundaries between man and nature. Did he already foresee his end? Is he eager for this ending with his inflated performance? Desire to use his death to interpret the last and most wonderful performance art of his life.

Grizzly Man quotes

  • Timothy Treadwell: I've always wished I was gay, it would have been a lot easier. You know, it's just Bing! Bing! Bing! - gay guys, no problem. They go to restrooms and truck stops and perform sex, it's like so easy for them and stuff. But you know what? Alas, Timothy Treadwell is not gay. Bummer!

  • Werner Herzog: And what haunts me, is that in all the faces of all the bears that Treadwell ever filmed, I discover no kinship, no understanding, no mercy. I see only the overwhelming indifference of nature. 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. But for Timothy Treadwell, this bear was a friend, a savior.
