Movie

Have you watched this movie?  I highly recommend it!

Name: Temple Grandin

Director: Mick Jackson

This drama/biography of Temple Grandin was very touching.  It takes a certain movie to make me cry and this is one of the few.  I have to admit, I was near tears at more scenes than I can count.  Can I say, "every scene"?  If it wasn't sad tears it was happy tears.

The movie showed how Temple worked through her autism and made her life worth something.  As was said in the movie, "I know there are a lot of things that I can't understand but I still want my life to have meaning."  She faced life, all the down talk from people and tough situations, and eventually succeeded. 

She was tough.  She didn't give up.  Whenever a door was in her path, she'd accept it.  After all, you never know what's on the other side until you open it.

During the movie, we were pulled into her life.  We saw things as she did, at least the best that we could. 

If you were to ask what part was my favorite, I'd say there were too many!  The whole deal was everything a movie should be.

But if you were to ask what part was my least favorite, I'd say, without hesitation, the part when the men changed her ally set up and killed three cows.  It was SO frustrating!

I don't want to tell you everything, so I'll end here.  If you want to watch a movie that at least inspired me, I say watch this one.  : )   

Different

not less
