Have you seen this movie? It's amazing. If Clare Daines doesn't win an award or five for her performance then I'll lose all respect for Hollywood. I loved it. Temple reminds me so much of an INT it's not even funny. I love the idea of a squeeze machine(won't give anymore away). If you haven't seen it, please do, you won't be sorry. You may even see aspects of yourself in her.

Well, I haven't seen the film but the real Temple Grandin is autistic. It makes sense that there are some commonalities between introversion and some aspects of autism. Likewise a scientist will tend to develop their T as it helps with their work.

I'd love to have her autism. It comes with a photographic memory and the mind of a very original thinker.

I didn't know there was a movie out. I really like Temple Grandin's work; she has such an original voice and it's helped me think through my relationship with a loved one who has autism but is not as verbal.

I like the squeeze machine idea too!
