To me, it seems that Herzog has a lot of respect for Treadwell and what he did. I think that Herzog acknowledges that his methods weren’t perfect, but, he does so in a respectful way. I think that Herzog saw Treadwell as someone who was determined and someone who did have pure intentions. I do think that Herzog also let the footage mostly speak for itself, only adding commentary when he saw fit. He interviewed Treadwell’s parents and individuals who disagreed with what Treadwell did, and I see this as being one of the ways that he tells viewers that there are two sides to the story. He met with experts about the hunting of bears. This was another piece of information that allowed viewers to decide if the bears did need someone watching over
