Timothy Treadwell Books and Movies
2005
seems to be the year when all the facts and arguments about Timothy
Treadwell have finally come to light. Two biographies and two documentaries
were released during this year, roughly two years after the media
grabbed onto the news of his death.
Timothy’s life is still full of mysteries. He left behind a
hundred hours of video tape he took in Katmai National Park, a speckled
past full of little white lies, and two polarized groups that would
either like to make Timothy into a saint or to completely destroy
his legacy.
It will take time to find out what Timothy’s legacy will be,
but I think all the answers to his mystery have already been presented
in the books and movies on this page. I see three items as essential
if you want to know what Timothy was all about; His book Among Grizzlies,
Nick Jans Grizzly Maze, and Werner Herzog’s documentary –
Grizzly Man.

Soundtrack
to Grizzly Man - Richard Thompson - The
music was great in the movie, hauntingly beautiful, but not
strong enough to stand on its own.
