Grizzly Man

i've got the DVD if you want to borrow it Ed? don't you live in the angel area anyway?

although i think i might have leant it to someone else, but a soon as i remember who, i'll recover it and let you know.

alternatively i think i got my copy in fopp for a couple of quid.

great film.

now everybody go and see ANVIL! THE STORY OF ANVIL.

No subtitles though

Timothy takes delusion to a whole new level. What the fuck he thinks he was ever doing was beyond me. The bears in his area are not under threat from poachers, hunters, or indeed anyone (which he gives as his express reason for being there to 'protect' them). I genuinely think that the bitterness he'd been harbouring from not getting a part in Cheers had turned him into some sort of 'bear Irwin wannabe' and he basically got himself, and sadly his partner, killed.

The bits where he does different takes wearing different bandanas is hilarious and worrying in equal measures.

i loved those foxes
the mumma fox was soo cute
beautiful red colour unlike our greying london urban foxes
can't wait for the mumma fox in my back garden to give birth this year so i can adopt one !

He definitely had a distinct vitriol for society and the authorities. Several scenes where he'd just flip and spout his "Fuck You, I beat you" rants

That guy seemed deranged and was totally annoying.After falling asleep during it I awoke and for a second had forgotten what I was watching,I found myself wondering,"Who is this idiot."
He had a rapport with the foxes I'll give him that but you dont fuck around with an animal that will decapitate you with one swipe of it's paw.I felt really sorry for the woman though.She was rightly scared of the bears and was even thinking about splitting up with the guy before she went out there.

Loved the bit where he was unloading his plane and he was taking the big water canister off, woman leant over to help him and he said "Get back, I'm supposed to be alone!" The phoney cunt!

It wasn't just Timothy, everyone in the film seems to have some kind of personality disorder.

Even the doctor who conducted the post mortem was talking into camera in the strangest dramatic manner that seemed well outside the bounds of a professional doctor.

It's a film about personality disorders for me, or extremes of character. Werner was the only rational person present.

also, at the start of the film, my girlfriend said, "this is the kind of guy who used to work in a themed restaurant"...

I liked the native Indian guy in the museum,"We stay away from them and they stay away from us.It's been that way for six thousand years."

Old Orleans ftw!

YouTube - Broadcast Yourself.

holy fuck, that's Jewel as well.

His high-pitched voice, whiny accent and constant use of the word 'freaking' had me cheering on the bears after about 10 mins.

I think Timothy missed a trick by not dressing as a giant salmon and running around a bit in front of the bears.

This movie must be narrated by Oliver Schick.

"I proceeded to lick the strawberry and cola Chupa Chup in a fashion I'd become familiar with in my observations of todays youth. The sensation was initially pleasant and gave me some pleasure, but this quickly turned to horror, murder, and despair"

Saw it at the cinema a couple of years ago, real life docu-film, in short:

College dropout who smoked to much weed goes to live with a load of bears in Alaska
Him and his girlfriend get eaten

The End

Cool thread, I love watching nature programs. Just out of interest, were the bears Black Bears.

Nope - big brown ones (Kodiak ?).
