Grizzly Man

I saw something on this guy on the discovery channel this weekend, not sure if it was the same movie or a documentary. This cat was disturbed.

I'm with Warren on this one, its not about the snuffing, its about the ultimate irony of this dude literally getting destroyed by his own love for something. He got so intertwined with his own innder demons he didn't see the position he put himself in, or maybe he did.

TVAD, I certainly can appreciate your perspective. It is beyond irony, beyond questions of taste, and all about insight. My point was about tapping into a penultimate moment that brought this guy to a very real completeness. It may not be for everyone -that's for sure. I did not mean to imply that it would be enjoyable, just instructive. We're talking about somebody that was enamoured with and played with fresh fecal matter from a bear and became truly one with the bear. His final moments may show an otherwise unknowable facet of his unique existence.

Who cares a flip about awards? - oh yeah, the director and people that are marketing the thing. That's always a great guiding principle for artistic expression.

I admittedly did not see the headphone scene. It may indeed be enough to convey the essence for many of us. There still must be a difference from hearing the tape yourself. I guess it would be like watching someone listen to music with headphones.
