1. Note taking Questions to think about/respond to during viewing: How does our perception of Treadwell change over the course of the film? we think he is insane, but we see other sides to him (aggressive, vulnerable, unhinged, egotistical) He dies the way he wanted to/he got what he deserved dilemma. What ideas about truth and representation are embodied by this film? Truth comes from the real footage but he has manufactured the image and we are not shown all the footage he ever shot so it is selected and artistically treated. How is represented himself is just as interesting as how is represented by others and the filmmaker. Think about Herzog’s treatment of Treadwell’s footage. selection and order of shots, music added, talking heads, key sequences, eg foxes, his added VO, use of experts, family, intepretaes it in his OWN way, doesn’t speak too much for the footage What are the key scenes that you could use in an exam response? foxes, voice recording of attack, wristwatch scenes
