Dr. Grandin was one of my professors at CSU. She is an amazing woman and Claire Daines captured her very well. HBO did an excellent job and it is thrilling to watch Dr. Grandin get recognition in the "main stream." Congratulations!
I love her! I was very fortunate to do a scene in Chicago with David David Strathairn on the Television show "Matadors" shot here,. What a wonderful person! I am very honored to have met him! I hope some day, I can meet the real Temple Grandin.
Temple you are an amazing person. My husband and I got the rare chance to meet you @ an Autism conference A Casa Colina, in Pomona. The awards won by this movie are a testament to your acheivments, congrats!!!!
Dear Prof. Grandin: You are a national treasure. Your indomitable spirit, courage, and passion has left me in awe. You are my hero! May God always bless you and the work at your hands. And I thank God with the deepest of gratitude for creating such a marvelous, intelligent , sensitive, wise, compassionate, and gracious human being like you. You truly are beautiful inside and out. You are the BEST of humanity. I wish you every happiness. I'm forever your fan! XO
This was the best movie in last several years. This woman is an inspiration....If you are feeling down about your life and having pity party, just look at what this woman has accomplished.......
We have had the distinct honor and privilege of knowing Temple and she is as amazing in person (if not more) as she is on this video. Temple is passionate about what she does and is a direct example of what people can do, instead of focusing on what people can't. Congrats Temple on your successes! Enjoy your HBO Party and Emmys.
I was just thinking the same thing. I can only think about how uncomfortable something like this must be for her, with how loud and crowded it is (from the looks of it).
probably the best movie made in last 15 years on all accounts, plot, acting, extracting the pure juice of this extraordinary woman's life as we sat back in pure awe and amusement she is a national treasure on oh so many counts. Now where can I get a Temple G Hug Machine lol
Finished watching this movie tonight. It's an amazing true life story that touched me so much. Left a happy tear at the end. The different topics, from autism, anxiety, animal behavior and ethical treatment of animals for food consumption are intriguing. I'm drawn to this story in so many ways.
I saw her at the most recent Duke graduation. She recieved the honorary degree of Doctor of Humane Letters. Was a shame she didn't do any talking during the ceremony, but it piqued my interest in her. I read the book (it was amazing and insightful) and I was thrilled when I learned that HBO had also made it into a movie (a great one at that). She is a great and inspiring woman who deserves nothing less than the exaltation and acolades heaped upon her. Godspeed Temple Grandin.
Hi Dr. Grandin. What a thrill it was to see your movie win so many awards tonight! I recently got to see it on HBO and watched it several times, every time I could catch it. It was so moving, educational, and touching. I am a Special Education teacher and your contribution to the field of Autism is astounding. You are an inspiration to all of us. Thank you for sharing your life with the world! I hope our paths cross one day.
@brubry12 She was never diagnosed with AS because the diagnosis didn't exist when she was a child, but I agree, I think she may have a more severe form of Asperger's Syndrome. She is a lot like me. I can't wait to see the movie.
@boisenewbie she stated in a couple of her interviews that she has been on antidepressants since she has been teaching at Colorado State University. Not the sole reason, but it does "even you out" so to speak, so that kind of thing won't be so difficult. Amazing woman, and an amazing movie! I am sincerely glad that she approved of the way to movie was done!
WOW. I decided to read her book "Animals in Translation" for my career biography... I'de never heard of her before but now that I google her it appears that she is rather famous. O.o She's such an interesting person, she amazes me.
@boisenewbie It's probably not as loud as it seems. Camera's and microphones pick up so much more than our ears usually do. How many times have you taped a home movie and then gone to play it back and you cringed at how loud the T.V. in the background was but you didn't notice it at all while you were filming it? It's probably kinda like that. :-)
@999JPETZ and hopefully inspire other people to try to be great as well. It seems to me too many people just waste their lifes in front of the t.v without caring about anything important. I love Temple Grandin! I too am interested in making the world a better place. I feel like the American food industry is in a crisis. "Watch Food Inc." and "Corn King" Not to mention Dr.s aren't even taught nutirion! Our bodies require certain things to keep us healthy so why wouldnt a Dr. be taught that?
Well i think she does not think about herself, not egoistic or kind of... My husband is like that...remmember the part of the movie when other girls cry out for singers and she didn't
This woman is so much more important than most of Hollywood...She is a genuis too...Listen to her articulate....Amazing.

awesome woman. i analyzed two of her books and how her wiring was reflected in both books was amazing.
I love her! I was very fortunate to do a scene in Chicago with David David Strathairn on the Television show "Matadors" shot here,. What a wonderful person! I am very honored to have met him! I hope some day, I can meet the real Temple Grandin.

This was an AWESOME movie....Congratulations Temple
Amazing woman who had an amazing mother! A true inspiration to parents of autistic children everywhere!
Temple Grandin is a true hero!

Anytime we see Temple she is full of love. 😍
She's amazing! I shudder to think how many brilliant minds are rotting in institutions.

If it weren't for Temple Grandin, I'd still be in the dark.
She's truly an inspiration.

She is unspeakably remarkable. That movie was so well done. Congratulations to all.
Temple Grandin has mentioned over and over how happy she is with the fact

Temple is the best love her:)
She is truly amazing we r watching the movie in our English class, love it. Claire Danes is amazing in it too!

I loved Temple on TED! She teaches that autism and diversity of the human mind are important and not a disadvantage.
fantastic everyone must watch this movie!
I am the proud mother of 2 autistic children. I am glad to here that this movie won awards.
@brubry12 She was never diagnosed with AS because the diagnosis didn't exist when she was a child, but I agree, I think she may have a more severe form of Asperger's Syndrome.
She is a lot like me. I can't wait to see the movie.
beautiful eye colour
I am gonna get to see her speak soon!!! :3
she is becoming an icon
I love the contrast between the so smart and thoughtful Temple and the vapid, small-minded women behind her.
@boisenewbie she stated in a couple of her interviews that she has been on antidepressants since she has been teaching at Colorado State University. Not the sole reason, but it does "even you out" so to speak, so that kind of thing won't be so difficult. Amazing woman, and an amazing movie!

@Damianmace THANK you!
The HORSEPOWER LADY. She's awesome!
@amazingdany just goes to show people can learn anything! She had trouble with people skills and she overcame them. She is awesome!
Love temple!

she rocks!!
I had not heard about her until she was mentioned by Kate McKinnon
Inspirational woman
W.T.G! Temple and Claire!!
@amazingdany shes in anti-anxiety meds - to deal with noisy social situations.
Kurt from Glee to the right in the background, none notice him...? Look at 0:16, haha :)

@DopeMcDoperson She actually has Aspergers Syndrome which is a form of autism. My son has it.
I love how she calls them geeks when she considers herself one i think no offense to her.
@boisenewbie That's what I'd like to know.
@MeElectroFy come on really?? WTF??? that is all you need to know?? wowww
Insperational woman
