Directed by Mick Jackson; screenplay by Christopher Monger and William Merritt Johnson, based on the books "Emergence" by Temple Grandin and Margaret Scariano and "Thinking in Pictures" by Temple Grandin.

    We liked everything. Would be educational for school children and really, for everyone. We learned a lot about autism, animal communication and to how to make positive changes for animals. Never give up, be persistent to create a positive change, in this case, for cattle farming. Also, to understand a different perspective, not devalue it because of the source. In this case an autistic person.

    What a heartwarming tale of a woman who in spite of her autism, makes a name for herself in a male-dominated environment, and if you check her out, you'll find she got herself a PhD and teaches at an agricultural college. The treatment of livestock on ranches, feed lots and in slaughter houses benefited from her compassion towards animals, her incredible design ingenuity and her relentless drive to get the results she wanted. Amazing woman ably portrayed by character actress Claire Danes, noted for her portrayal of a bipolar CIA operative in the series "Homeland". Highly recommended!

    My daughter was required to watch this movie in her Grade 10 class and thought it would be good to buy and donate to her old school to be used for anti bullying. I watched it with her and had to agree that this movie brings home a strong message that a person may be different but still can make a significant difference to society. I recommend that this movie be required viewing for children as young as 10. I feel that every school have this movie in their library. If you have a child that is suffering bully (especially if they are autistic), then I highly recommend this movie.

    Esta pel¨ªcula autobiogr¨¢fica despu¨¦s de ser vista tiene muchas lecturas, ya que trata temas tan dispares como el respeto a los animales o el autismo.Centr¨¢ndome en el autismo, es una pel¨ªcula totalmente recomendable para aproximarse al autismo, ya que la realizaci¨®n de la pel¨ªcula mezcla la visi¨®n de las personas "neuronormales" con la visi¨®n de una persona autista, lo cual es un punto de vista h¨ªbrido que puede ser de gran utilidad para ambas tipolog¨ªas de espectadores. Adem¨¢s, incluye una historia de superaci¨®n que puede ser muy motivadora para personas que tienen allegados autistas, pues los mensajes que est¨¢n en la pel¨ªcula est¨¢n basados en hechos reales.

    Film remarquable parce que son sujet, Temple Grandin est remarquable de t¨¦nacit¨¦ et d'intelligence de la pens¨¦e des vaches. Cette forme d'autisme, moins grave que d'autres, l'a rendue sensible ¨¤ l'extr¨ºme ¨¤ des signes que nous ne remarquons pas chez les autres (ici les vaches) et qui demandent de faire tomber nos barri¨¨res mentales.
    Tr¨¨s bien jou¨¦. Ce qui est bien montr¨¦ ce sont les aides dont Temple Grandin a b¨¦n¨¦fici¨¦es de la part de ceux qui l'aimaient et ont fait preuve de beaucoup de respect et de patience.
