Temple Grandin (2010 TV Movie)
10/10
had it not been 'made for TV'....

we'd be looking at a Best Actress award for Claire Danes, and possibly a Best Picture.

Seriously, line them up... put Sandra Bullocks' performance in 'The Blind Side' and line it up against Claire Danes here and Sandra gets annihilated... blown out... left in the dust of the herding grounds.

Temple Grandin is an absolutely fantastic film.

Nothing unpleasant is glorified. The supporting performances are first rate, but it is Claire Danes' total emergence into the character that mesmerizes the audience. From her walk to her facial expressions - every scene is perfection. This is the kind of performance that will garner lots of critical acclaim, and bring her a new group of devoted fans.

Reduced to tears by the inspirational story and performance. Highly recommended. 96/100

You'll like it if you liked: Forest Gump, Rainman, Terms of Endearment, and Shine.
