I was scanning through the TV listings and noticed a listing for Temple Grandin. Looking closer, it's a movie from HBO about Temple Grandin who wrote the book Animals in Translation.
Here's the one-line description from Zap2It: "The scientist becomes an advocate for autistics and the humane treatment of livestock."
Sounds like it might be interesting. But since I don't have HBO, I would have to wait for it to come out video.
According to Amazon, the DVD will be released on August 17, 2010. It gets five stars on 25 reviews, 24 five-star review, 1 three-star (and even that one was mostly positive). [Warning, that Amazon page somehow ate up my memory causing a lot of writing to disk.]
Evidently HBO puts out some pretty good movies. Another excellent one is Something The Lord Made (although dog lovers might get squeamish as they used dogs in their research).
