The film by Herzog was certainly worthy of making but is so bizarre. Two seemingly unrelated and opposite worlds forced together (by T. Treadwell) it what the laws of the universe ultimately decided would never work, ending in destruction and chaos. The bizarre nature of T. Treadwell who was fighting his sexuality demons in the most narcissistic and self flagellating manner would have been better played out in a drag queen reality show. The fact that he chose to capture his "life DRAMA" in a natural setting so majestic and raw was such a disconnect and made the film look like a side show. Drag Queen in the Wild would have been a better title than Grizzly Man. It was nonsense and pointless. I get the human struggle, the search for himself blah blah blah. But to try to make a poetic statement about this obviously deranged individual was pointless. Maybe that was Herzog's intention. To make it appear as a side show. Certainly the parents scene, the ex-girl friend "friend", the watch scene and the morgue scene were side shows in themselves.
