temple grandin

is not a temple for worship or a place related to religion. it is a name of an autistic professor and doctor of animal science. her life is truly an inspiration for people who are special. her story was captured in a movie entitled after her name. her character was portrayed by claire danes. i thought she did a good job playing the role as temple. without knowing her early filmography, you'll have little appreciation of the effort she did for the movie. 


the movie's drama is focused on the love of a mother who pushed herself to give her kid a shot in living a normal life. special people react differently in normal society. you will find the struggles are quiet different for these people and to cope with the society, they actually have their own way of buffering through circumstances. the funny and insiprational side of the story is temple's eagerness to pursue her passion.
