Werner Herzog`s persistent inquiry into the motivations of human obsession focuses this time on the self-proclaimed
kind warrior
Timothy Treadwell. A passionate wildlife preservationist and grizzly bear devotee, Treadwell lived unarmed among the grizzlies in a remote section of Alaska for 13 years, and eventually died in a bear attack. He filmed his experiences during his final five years, and Herzog makes use of this footage in a posthumous portrait of a complex, intriguing character. A youthful blond actor turned nature lover, Treadwell is revealed over the course of the film to have been a troubled soul who found solace in the wild, and the existential questions and difficulties he faced in the world were, fascinatingly, worked out on film. Deftly interweaving Treadwell`s quiet moments of nature appreciation with meandering introspection and alarmingly hostile rants, Herzog masterfully captures the enigma of the dead man. Herzog has a genuine appreciation of Treadwell`s films, as well as sympathy for Treadwell`s apparent ill peace with the world. Much of GRIZZLY MAN`s complexity comes in our growing awareness of Timothy`s apparent naivety, his need to see himself as a savior, and his sentimentalizing of nature. However, we are left with the impression of someone unafraid to follow his heart and go to any extreme--even death--in search of peace.

Although her life was cut cruelly short, Marilyn Monroe left behind such a rich legacy that it leaves most other starlets trailing in her considerable wake. Liaisons with baseball star Joe DiMaggio, playwright Arthur Miller, and an alleged affair with John F. Kennedy have lead to a constant source of speculation regarding her private life. As an on-screen diva she lit up movie theatres with her natural charms, and gained an impressive and devoted following worldwide. Her death from a sedative prescription has lead to much rumor mongering over the years, with the many theories rivalling the demise of her former alleged paramour, JFK, in the conspiracy stakes.
