Temple Grandin

What a great historical and inspirational story of a wonderfully inspiring woman. Temple Grandin continues to inspire and lead in cutting-edge animal behavioral sciences. Her unique story, personality and insights also show us that ALL of us have something to offer no matter the challenges or obstacles others or life puts in our path. Well worth watching especially if you have a family member that has Asperger’s syndrome or Autism.

I actually caught this movie on hbo last week. I wasn’t sure I’d like it but I have a niece and nephew that have issues, more-so along the lines of adhd but I’ve always felt my nephew was borderline autistic. Needless to say, I’m always looking for movies to help understand them better or look for ways to help make it easier for them. ***spoiler***For instance, the part about perspective and how she couldn’t figure it out until she was given that one hint and everything just clicked for her. ***spoiler*** After watching the movie though, I found it a heartwarming tale of the human spirit and how resilient it is. Even given a huge setback in life, she was able to find ways to overcome it in her own way. A way that worked for her, and not only that, she was able to overcome sexism in the cattle industry to contribute to society. But the best part of all was she was able to articulate the ways she overcame her issues to help others along the spectrum as well. Sometimes it just takes a different perspective to make you look at the world in a new way and this movie definitely makes you think in a different way.

This turned out to be a fantastic film, I was quite surprised.

What an amazing story. We need you Temple to tell the world your story.

Truly inspirational!

The best movie I've ever seen and I'm only 12

Terrific, touching, warm film. Danes is an absolute revelation.
