Thanks for watching!
I read in an interview that Temple grandin hasn't used the hug machine in years and she's finally perfectly fine with hugging people the same as everyone else does. She's a fascinating person
The mother getting emotional seeing her daughter engage in that feat and self evaluate and describe how she sees the world, gets me every time.
What got me was that after all these years, she got her wish. An hug from her daughter.
I am a single mom and it's hard raising kids, especially alone. So many times they get mad or upset when you make them do things they don't want to do or don't understand why they're having to do it. It's a very hard job. Throughout the movie you see her mom struggling to make her do things despite the struggles she faced being autistic. That shot of the look on her mom's face - to me was her mother's confirmation that all the hard things she forced her to do were finally being paid off - job well done mom!! Every parents dream!!
I'm a 20 year old adult, and I was diagnosed with Aspergers today, all my life I did not know I had Aspergers, but I knew I was different. And I could relate so much to Temple Grandin. I already have my associate's degree. I was taught manners and was raised in a strict household and that helped me to be a functional adult with a good work ethic...athough I don't have good social skills... manners and social graces work for me.
Hey I have that kind of Autism too and I’m almost 29 years old; and I met Temple Grandin once
I made a shortfilm about autism, since i’m autistic myself and have a strong dislike for the representation in film. I hope you like it! th-cam.com/video/dr4bX8qmed0/w-d-xo.html
Social skills are not that important but being independent does. Kudos & more power to you.
I LOOOVE how when she says, "No, I don't have children . . . I'm autistic!" EVERYONE whirls around to stare at her.
I cried and cried when I watched this movie. My son was autistic (yes past tense). I was moved by the movie and it made me feel better about my son's condition. Pass forward 4 years later, I got diagnosed. That door in the end is very real for me right now. I lost my son in 2018 and I'm still grieving. My mom tried her best but she neglected me when I got to be an adult so I don't get to be hugged. My confidence is shattered. He died March of 2018 and I changed my career as medical assistant because I wasn't able to save him. I stumbled upon being a substitute teacher at his old school. Coincidentally, the job posting was posted on his birthday. I took it as sign and went for the job. Been at that job going on almost 4 years now. I'm now a junior in college pursuing a major in special education teaching. That door is real for most of us autistic people.
Thanks for the upload. I needed to see this today.
I’m so sorry about your son, you’re doing a beautiful job of honor him ❤️
@@Foxfang27 aaawww 🤗🤗thank you!! Happy Mother's day!!
People do not understand what it's like for those of us who have autism! We can't be cured of our autism, but we can find ways to contribute to the community by using the abilities that we have!
I showed this scene during a presentation on Autism for a science class a few years ago. I received an A+. Thanks, Temple and Claire!
I met Temple at this age. She had put together a cattle handling facility. We were interested in her ideas. We knew she was different and she told us she was; most realized she was gifted to understanding things we could not see, like the way shadows made cattle stop, or how well they moved in a circle. We noticed, but never put it all together; she did. Although I met & spoke with her a dozen times spending hours with us, last yr she could not recall meeting me. Needed a visual cue.
Probably one of the best movies I've ever seen. Puts life in a better perspective and makes you strive to overcome one's difficulties, whatever they may be.
udz24 Agreed. Even if its old its still represents now.
I personally think it a more powerful movie than Rain Man.
@@DJfireant789plus It was from 2010. Not really that old.
I haven't seen the film yet, but I'm a bit thrown off by the way the actress chose to speak. I read Temple's book 'the autistic brain' and I listened to several of her speeches and she definitely doesn't talk like this. Yes, she had difficulty learning how to speak as a child, but in her speeches she sounds just fine. I think this is a bit overacting - wanting to seem obviously disabled. But the problem is: autistic people very often don't seem disabled at all. This feels like a very neurotypical approach to autism to me (I'm autistic myself and am working on my phd as well and no one would know I'm autistic, other than the people who saw me as a child).
@@valhalla1240 Temple herself said Claire Danes "she became me". We have to remember this is not Temple Grandin now, its Temple Grandin back in the 1960's through 1981 in the movie.
If it was not authentic, we all know Temple would have said so (those of us who have heard her speak and read her books).
I knew I was different, but Not less ! :)
Brilliant speech!!! This makes my cry every time!!!!!
E V E R Y T I M E !
Now those no Las make me cry every time EVERY TIME
Yeah I know right?
This exactly how I feel and damn near close to how I was raised. I was pushed and wasn't babied and I'm living my dreams as well independently
Claire Danes did what Dustin Hoffman did for Rainman ~ one terrific job on being autistic in different levels. There are 1,019 genetic markers for autism and like Temple said in her books and lectures, different therapy programs and support animals do not work for all people with autism. I gotta love when she said "If there was a cure for autism, I would not want it because I might lose my brilliant brain. God love you Temple. We learnt so much from you and our boys are doing great. :~)
1. Lie down.
2. Try not to cry.
3. Cry a lot.
The look on the mothers face as Temple talked about all the things her mother pushed her to do worked. Even what she told her stuck in her head and after years of feeling was she doing the right thing as a mother her concerns are answered by Temple. "I knew I was different but not less"
I have high functioning autism and I hate physical touch it makes me tense and I think about things that most people don't think about. I also learn best by visual representation(pictures). What calms me down is swings and petting an animal.
I do to.No one knew I had autism spectrum disorder on scale of 1-10 I'm a 1-2 I was 10 when u was diagnosed
I love this movie. I've met Dr. Grandin in real life 3 times.
Highly unbelievable. But ok.
Were you one of her students? So jealous, I would kill to meet her.
Very cool
Suuuuure, and I took a bath with Jesus.
Temple Grandin is one of the best movies available about Autism. It doesn't overly stereotype autistics.
I have a niece with autism. She is 15 y.o. now. Very smart and sweet. Her father, my oldest brother, push her into the school every day, no matter what. And when she is not behave like any adolescent (refuse to bath or leave the computer at diner time...), she is the most care, tender and loving person I ever know. We have a lot to lear from them... A LOT.
Thank you for share this video, I didn't know Temple and her extraordinaire life.
She is a leading axample for everybody. Including me.
She is a absolute inspiration and an amazing person
+maconsumner Agreed :]
Agreed!! With the hugest admiration for those who helped and allowed this magnificent woman to be heard and develop amidst a harsh world.
Autism can be a incredible gift if they were supported by people who love them and want them to succeed in life.
Temple Grandin is my hero because I have autism and I am currently working towards my goal of becoming a college professor
very true
Let's love these beautiful People.
NAGANDRAN MURUGIAH Agreed :)
Dr. Temple is like an innovator she opens our eyes to a lot of possibilities especially to those people who has the same situation. Autism doesn't makes you any less if anything it provide a lot of possibilities! 😊💕
Well said!
Sharif Matar, thanks! 😊
AMAZING STORY...TEMPLE GRANDIN IS A HERO FOR HER BRAVERY AND CONTRIBUTIONS TO ANIMALS.
Admirable. This is PGTC. So: GPTB - Genetic Program Trend Behavior. I'm glad that people like Dr. Temple is duly honored. I am Brazilian and I know how much the world needs as it references.
Autism is not contagious but kindness is!
100% TRUE
that just made me tear up!
I'm autistic, Yep, wasn't babied, and was put into uncomfortable situations for my betterment. Did I like it? No. But I knew I needed it. I don't like being touched, but I love to be squeezed by things. I bought myself a weighted blanket, and it can calm me down in seconds. Complete meltdown can be stopped just like that. Noise is my kryptonite. I rock, I pace, I wiggle my fingers, and I flap my arms. It's calming.
I loved this.
Today I had a meeting at my regional center. The meeting was about transitioning about adulthood. They discussed about college and what to do.I told the parents that I was autistic, getting associates and got accepted to a university. Everyone clapped. I felt like Temple for a moment.
😑
keep going I too am autistic and I did my doctorate in international law from Oxford.Completed it a month ago.
I work at the International Criminal Court I speak 16 languages (Arabic Chinese English French Russian Spanish Portuguese Xhosa Zulu Afrikaans Dutch Chichewa Italian German Burmese) wrote several books on human rights and political science (working on one now) have a beautiful Malawian girlfriend (Ndiayankhulo Chichewa yankhulo chibwenzi chimalawi chiyankhulo chimodzi) the professionals told me I couldn't go to school I went to the basic high state in the state did AP classes they told me I can't go to college I did my doctorate in international law from Oxford told me I couldn't find a job work at the international criminal court cannot find a girlfriend have a beautiful Malawian girlfriend Precious Chasowa the "professionals" were wrong on all counts
Congrats man. Also nice name XD
Brilliant screenwriting, acting, directing. such great emotional payoff and wrap up of the story in this one scene.
She's such an amazing role model for the Autism community. ❤
Temple Grandin will be coming to my town in December. Wish I could meet her.
I met Temple at this age. She had designed a cattle handling facility & was interesting. We knew she was different and she told us she was; most realized she was gifted to understanding things we could not see, like the way shadows made cattle stop, or how well they moved in a circle. We noticed, but never put it all together; she did. Although I met & spoke with her a dozen times spending hours with us, last yr she could not recall meeting me. I did not know why then - now I do.
She is my hero ❤❤❤
This tells most of my story. I never talked until i was four and i kept going until i could socialize. But i have a cycle i have to do and i panic if not done. Im great at public speaking only if people would hear me or knew what i want i would tell them about my story.
I'm the same way!
0:09 I have autism and when I was little, I loved spinning on the swing like that
This thing I love most about this is that she says it’s different for EVERYBODY
I'm autistic & some of you still don't understand yes we can have kid yes we can work we just don't like be touched or talk alot be around large crouds or light because our sinces are much higher than normal pep also somega are very smart some are telapatic healer & see spirit but studies wont tell u it all about autistic people
+Kelly Vanorden im autistic and i like being touched and light and lard crouds of people and i cant stop talking XD
Kelly Vanorden im autistic and i undersand you
Yeah you show them whos boss >:D

There are different levels on the Spectrum. It all depends on the severity of specific traits for a specific person.
Yep, you can still be on the spectrum and love to communicate ( That may take some getting used too at first) dont have sensory issues, or have mild sensory issues. Everyone on the spectrum is different. But has certain traits that make up a diagnosis.
I like your movie Temple Grandin I have autism
Savina Batres dame omg it would be an honor to hear Temple Grandin in person
Autism runs in my family. I have it, my mom has it, my grandpa has it. I can totally see my grandpa doing this.
I, on the other end of the way of thinking spectrum, only think in words and numbers, I have never thought in a picture.
Interesting. How does this effect your life and work?
This womans story is the embodiment of hope.
2018. I watched this in my high school. And I absolutely loved it. This is an amazing movie.
Claire is an excellent actress and IMHO Temple is her life-part. I've got an autistic member in the farther family and I can say she's very convincing - her gestures, stance, facial expressions, mood alternations, panic attacks ... she deserves an award, no doubt.
I love this. I’m Autistic but it’s not severe. I have asp-burgers spectrum disorder which affects my social skills. I’ve gotten better since my childhood. When I was littler if I was in a big crowd that were talking so much I would run just run and when my mom was able to catch me she would have to hold me down cause I would kick and scream. Ive gotten better as I grew up but when I still have episodes as they call them my dog calms me down I run straight to her for comfort and she just lays beside me.
After becoming familiar with Claire Danes on Homeland, I looked back at her acting repertoire, and am just spellbound at her talent. She is the best living actress.
Such a beautiful and moving scene from the extraordinary movie about Temple’s life!! My very favorite movie of all time! She’s such an inspirational person. She inspires me to live a more courageous life!! I wish I could thank her!!
As a single father to a 12-year-old who is born with autism, I’ve learned this things throughout the years I’ve learned communication I wasn’t brought up and that type of atmosphere as a child. I was brought up for Toughlove so being a father alert to change all that and show love and always embrace a hug. Every day is very important. Schedules are very important as well to make sure we each tell each other we love each other before bedtime. Everything Hass to be on a schedule with autistic children because if they don’t have a schedule, it’s just chaotic so I live to schedule my phone rings at different times for everything that’s how I live my life for my son communication never talk above them go to their level squat to their height, it’s more compatible. That way love is a very incredible key. Most of us grew up probably not knowing that hug means 1 million things we do that every night. I love you and give a hug before bed even without dog we do a group hug it’s part of our way of scoping and it’s worked.
I can never truly wrap my head around how genius my son is I was like how is he passing the spelling test every week how he passes his difficult math test which in my days were different than they do it today and he passes with 100 and I realize after watching this movie numerous times I realize now today which was yesterday May 31, 2023 that he visualize is everything in his head and that’s how he’s able to conquer. He wants to become a police officer and he’s determined And he’s doing well. He just got his 4th honor roll, and four trophies for a high achievements in science, social studies and language arts. My son didn’t speak as a child he has speech he had occupational therapy I had counseling, but eventually he didn’t wanna go to counseling he got tired of talking about the same thing which I understand truthfully but you have to have patience and love.
Oh, how I agree with that speech. :) I should show this very video to everyone I know, primarily my family who won't stop judging me about my "weird" behavior...
This is inspirational.
She’s scared but she can do it because she knows it matters so much.
This movie was absolutely remarkable and Clare Danes was simply outstanding as Temple Grandin!!
I love this movie
I first saw this when I was nine years old, I’d been told by my mom and my third grade teacher that I might be autistic (but I wasn’t diagnosed until I was twelve) and I was asked to watch this movie, it had just recently released and was very popular back then. This was the first time I’d really heard of autism or Temple Grandin. I usually never get emotional at movies even now but I was crying at this scene and my mom was shocked and asked me why and I said it was good to see someone who thinks the same way I do. I had literally never even thought there could be anyone who had the same way of thinking or doing or feeling things as me and it was a big shock that I wasn’t the only one.
It took me a long time to figure out why you weren't supposed to say how you were when people asked you how you were and I still think it's stupid but I do it. What I recognized most in the trailers for this movie is when the guy asks can she bring everything she sees into her mind and she says "Yeah, can't you?"
That still messes me up. If you don’t want to know, don’t ask me.
I was diagnosed with PDD-NOS back in the day, Now my diagnosis is in the Umbrella of the Autism Spectrum and I had speech delay, but I mostly spoke early and didn't talk much untill I was 6 in the half years old, probably, I don't remember!
I love this scene so inspiring 😍😍😍😭😭
No, I don't think that's the intention. I think she's a mother who knows her daughter well and was trying to protect her from the sensory overload that she knew she'd experience with the crowd's reaction etc.
I just finished this movie and I absolutely loved it
This makes me cry every time
Her act is great!
this part was truly emotional..fantastic!! fan from Singapore!!
Doctor Grandin is awesome.
This film is a MUST see
Preach Temple!!!
Amazing film
water works...she is an amazing woman who has affected so many lives
So inspiring!
II love this movie
gabbythegymnast what's her name plz ?!
I watched this twice Daines was amazing. What an actress
So, so beautiful
SHe is SOOOO EPIC IN THIS MOVIE. LOVE IT!
This woman is so interesting to me. I'm fascinated by her life story
I don't watch many movies.I read a lot of science and research things a lot.I watched this movie.It was the first movie I watched in 8 years.I loved it.
just brilliant
لو اشوف هالفلم مليون مره ما اتملل منه .. فوق الروعة
0:06 The moment when my teacher gives me so much homework.
Que genial es la voz en inglés de la actriz de Temple Grandin.
2:09 idg why this woman behind her now erupts into tears. oh yeah it’s a film rite
She was her mother. Temple summorized what her mother had done for her from her childhood on in a minute. So remembering all sufferings in a minute made her cry. Another reason she was proud of her.
@@adathe_island5466 thanks.
She reminds me of my childhood,
I can sort of understand what she means about the rocking and other self-stimulation habits of autistic people. I'm not autistic but I do have some degree of ADHD, even more so when I was a kid. In my free time sometimes I would spin around or walk around with my head back facing the sky because it felt comforting in a way and helped me focus my nervous energy. Adults and other kids thought I was a weirdo but it helped me to calm down when I felt like an energy bomb with nowhere to explode.
I'm the same way! I have Inattentive ADHD (ADD, basically), and whenever I sit or stand, I rock in my chair. I'm okay with hugging, but that's mostly because I'm short enough to hear the persons' heartbeat. I also have oversensitive ears, and can't handle blue and red flashing lights. I have custom made musical earplugs so that terrible sounds are quiet enough to ignore, so I can hear people around me and so that I can handle loud restaurants and the school hallways. I also find music calms me in a way I can't even describe. But, horseback riding gives me the same effect. I remember the first time I left my first horseback riding lesson, I felt so calm! I've never felt anything like it!
Wow very inspiring
I Love this
Wow!
This is an amazing perpsective, love this.
i love this video is amazing
Wonderful movie.
You know, I think that we exclude people because of what they are not who they are. We have to learn to treat everybody the same in this world, and it will be much better.
I’m artistic (inside joke from the movie)
The movie is amazing, we watched it at school!!
brilliant
We watched that movie in art class last year
The notion that difficulties seen by Autistics are 'no different' to NT (non autistics) is complete crap. I have Aspergers which is a mild form of Autism, but I still recognise a lot of behaviours in Temples film. I dont like being hugged by anyone I dont fully trust, if Im in meltdown I wont be touched at all. Something like too many people in town can send me over the edge. Ill cry, scream, throw things and bang my head. I dont like to go out socially, its exhausting and participation becomes actually painful. Im massively sensitive to smells and noise, Ive run out of work in a panic before now and screamed the place down more than once. Im hard to figure out, I cant always talk (I mean I am selectively mute), I cant bear my hair being brushed, labels, the dentist, and ill go off on one if my foods mixed. This is NOTHING like a non autistic life. Temple gives a wonderful insight into that.
Great movie...;)
Wow, to know the rocking is a sign of autism is a new one for me, i always did it for years, and thought i was just weird haha, i recently came to realise many auitistic spectrum symptoms
Rocking? Like rocking yourself to sleep, or rocking to calm yourself down? Because I do that to.
The saddest part of all this is seeing a bunch of parents who love their children with all their hearts, so desperate for answers, for help.
i was amazed by her story. it made me realise how lucky and greatful i should be:D
No disrespect but cows are Temple Grandin true soulmate.
I have autism I was not diagnosed until I was 10.Can you see how invisible autism can be.I was in grade level for my hole life.I only have social and sensory issues some times.Also the freacken bulling!Why must you hate me!?
16 for me :/
Hey dont feel down. Bullies are dumb. All they do is attract attention. Make you feel like a loser. And try to be the greatest than everyone else. Just try to ignore them. You dont deserve to be treated with disrespect. I was teased in 3 grade because of the color of my skin. I learned to laugh along then. Now I regret it as i feel useless. But i changed dramatically. God bless you.
Where the hell i can find the full movie i remember this i had love it So amazing i cried
check your local public library if you have a library card i checked it out to use as research for my speech.
I got it off Netflix.
What is it called?
