Prior to seeing GM the only Herzog film I'd seen was Even Dwarves Started Small, which to be honest I still find pretty impenetrable. GM on the other hand... well, it says something about a film that it actually makes me cry - last time that happened was watching The Snowman as a child. But when Herzog's listening to that tape, and his hand's shaking, Palovak's sobbing, and the exchange following the tape, that gets to me more than any other piece of cinema I've ever seen. Even just thinking about it gives me a lump in my throat. That alone would elevate it to one of the best films, let alone documentaries I've ever seen, but it's just such a unique insight into human nature that, from what I've seen of cinema, fiction couldn't even hope to convey. Not just Treadwell's either, but that of the people who found his remains, Palovak, even Herzog himself. Definetely makes me want to give his other works another go. Not often that a film makes me end up talking like an over-emotional pretentious twat either, come to think of it.
And yes, that's the same music doc as on the DVD. I'm more interested in hearing Herzog's outro immediately following the More4 showing though, probably showing around 11:55pm.
