"The Fog of War" is excellent, but "Grizzly Man" was a game-changer for me. It was both existential and visceral, which made it unshakable. Sadly, I don't find myself thinking about "The Fog of War" much.

The Fog of War I feel requires a lot of historical knowledge to appreciate. Herzog's film is much more compelling.
I saw Wedding Crashers accidentally. I bought a ticket for Grizzly Man and went into the wrong theater. After an hour, I figured I was in the wrong theater, but I kept waiting. Cause that's the thing about bear attacks... they come when you least expect it.
Just because it's a play-in, doesn't mean it isn't a brutal choice that I'd rather not be making just yet. I voted for FOG OF WAR because it's part of a really crucial part of Errol Morris' work where his skepticism of the creation of images leads him into some really profound historical analysis. STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURE is the best version of that, but FOG OF WAR is much more personal and human. Herzog wants to wrestle with what is means for humans to come into contact with nature, but while Timothy's story is gripping, I'm taking FOG OF WAR'S historical scope over GRIZZLY MAN
Just did my homework and watched Fog of War. Although incredibly insightful and interesting, McNamara and Morris create a solid film, but one that does not hold a candle to Grizzly Man. Timothy’s story is fascinating and nothing beats the voice of Werner Herzog. Has to be Grizzly Man no doubt.
Fog of War, all the way. I can't think of another doc (maybe even another film) that has scrambled my brain cells more thoroughly about politics, power, privilege, and the nature of good and evil.
This may be the toughest decision of the play ins. Both excellent but I’m going with Herzog, unforgettable and it’s amazing how many people today know the name Timothy Treadwell.
