Grizzly Man

I just watched this movie last night. There are worse ways to spend 2 hours of your life. You MUST watch the 50 minute "added feature" of the making of the soundtrack. Incredible "live" footage of Richard Thompson and other assorted studio cats practicing their craft. Amazing footage, Richard Thompson is a very gifted man.

The scene of the director listening to the tape in Grizzly Man's ex's house is one powerful viewing experience. When he tells the ex that she should destroy the tape, I got chills. That's as close as I want to be to that sad, lost man's death. Damn shame he caused the grizzly to have to be killed, too. Narcissistic is the only way, I think, to describe this guy.

By the way, anyone see Step Into Liquid and Riding Giants? Stupendous docs that just make you feel exhilerated. I now wanna be a surfer! (OK, maybe just body surfer.)

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.
