Grizzly man

Over the last week we have watched 4 documentaries. Of the four documentaries there were

two of them about animals. The first documentary was called “grizzly man” by Tim Tredwell. The

other was one done by Jane Goodall, called chimps in the wild. I found the documentary by Tredwell a

lot more appealing to me both visually and informatively. Tredwells documentary had a lot more

meaning to it then Goodalls. Tredwell had nothing else to live for his life literally was living with the

bears. And he proved this message very well. I liked how he had a meaning for being out there he

wasnt just going out into the wild for fame of doing it, he needed to change things in his life and for the

bears life. I liked how this documentary wasn’t just about the bears, it had a lot more to it. It showed

how treadwell was struggling with life and how he got him self back on track. This kept me very

interested in the movie and wanting to watch more. When its specifying on one thing i tend to loose

focus on whats going on. This was nice because it was about the bears but then took a break and

expanded a little more on Treadwell as a person. I really liked how they told us that Treadwell had

passed away at the beginning of the documentary because it got you in the right mood for the rest of the

documentary. When they flashed back to 10 hours be four his death it sort of haunted me inside

knowing that 10 hours

Grizzly Man Documentary Analysis

“Grizzly Man” was made after Timothy Treadwell's death in tribute to his life.A life that not many would consider living. The film’s ambiance made me feel like Timothy was still alive. The style of this documentary held a very unique disposition, taking an unorthodox approach to capture the audience. Grizzly Man consists of footage Timothy shot of himself going through his adventures, interacting with the bears, daily routines as well as interviews conducted by Werner Herzog. This formatting creates…

The Kermode Bear: White Hair Pigments

The Kermode bear is an American black bear that has the white hair pigment. It is exactly a black bear. It may not look that way but I am telling you now that it is a black bear and not a polar bear that has just ventured down from the North Pole. It is commonly known as the “Spirit Bear”. The Kermode Bear is a carnivore so it is a meat eater. This bear is only found in a small area of central and north coast regions of British Columbia, Canada. The scientific name for it is Ursus Americanus Kermodei…

Essay on Society: Holy Spirit and Proper Behavior Stands

Spirit. If the all-powerful, all-knowing Spirit of God can be a Gentleman, if a man or woman would yield to Him, wouldn’t that man or woman be a Gentleman of God or Lady of God. But we back away from that because we mistake gentle [like meek] for wimpy and weak. But gentle is not being weak and wimpy. For example, being gentle with a baby is entirely different from being gentle with a grizzly bear. If you’re grizzly bear gentle with a…

Timothy Treadwell Analysis

Treadwell treats the grizzlies at Katmai National Park as his children and as his companion, often cooing with them on camera with his documentaries or conversing with the animals as he relates of his misfortunes of life in the human world. Unfortunately, the behaviour in which Timothy Treadwell engages in with his proximity to these wild animals eliminates the boundaries that separate humans and bears. With this elimination of the distinction…

Whether it is gifts to other people in the profane world or gifts to gods and other scared beings there is a cycle of giving and receiving.
