Temple Grandin Film on HBO



TIVO alert!! The HBO original docu-drama about Temple Grandin, noted animal activist and autistic will air Saturday, Feb. 6 at 8:00 PM. The film stars Claire Danes as the scholar who pretty much revolutionized the way we view and treat large animals, especially those bound for slaughter.

She claims that her autism allows her to see what animals see and she truly has turned what might be viewed as a liability (autism) into an asset in her profession.

Whatever you think of her methods, the film looks amazing. I, for one, am looking forward to watching it.
