Romantics who died by the law of existence

Just finished watching The Grizzlies. Treadwell walked into the world of Alaskan grizzly bears with full expectations for all the truth, goodness and beauty in this world, and persisted for 13 years, and finally died in the bear's mouth and died of "the desire to survive by the laws of nature". Of course, this bear is an unfamiliar old bear, not the bear friends he has been with for 13 years. Ahem, you can also think so without seriousness: there are also bad bears and bad bears in the bear... It is not much like the human world. The difference is even more immediate and violent. I believe in the natural laws of species balance, but I am not a complete rationalist. In a way, Treadwell is just bringing together the romantic feelings about harmonious nature in each of us, and the escape is full of Too many dark human societies seek their own life value in the most primitive animals. All of this, from the perspective of ordinary people, he is indeed in a state of self-forgetfulness and arrogance (from begging for rain, cursing the government, crossing the boundaries of human beings and bears...), perhaps it is the existence and disappearance of Treadwell that makes many people renew thought about some questions. At the end of the film, he said: I don't see any loving and intimate expressions on the faces of these bear friends, except for indifference, indifference to survival... I also think about another crazy thing: indifference to survival, I admit, whether it is in nature or human society . Why did he live with those bear friends for 13 summers, but no harm happened? Does the combination of contingency and inevitability really only explains one truth: bears, wild animals, ruthless.

    8.5 Teacher Guanbing said it very deeply. In the form, it demonstrates how the self and the non-self dialectically exist and interact through the comparison of similar private images and interviews. In Timothy's heart, the non-self (that is, the grizzly bear) is the patron saint of self (that is, human), but the non-self in nature kills the self. Through the two-way exploration of "external vision" and "introspection", we can reach the deepest understanding of the characters: you should look at people before understanding people (how many directors are eager to establish an emotional connection between the characters and the audience and ignore this basic " Understanding the problem"), after all, to understand people is to understand ourselves

    It was shot by Herzog.

Grizzly Man quotes

  • Werner Herzog: [to Jewel, after he listens to the audio tape containing the violent death of Timothy and Amy. He is clearly shaken] I think you should not keep it, you should destroy it. I think that's what you should do, because it will be the white elephant in your room all your life.

  • The coroner: It was on his wrist.
