Claire Danes: #GoldenGlobes 2013 Best Actress TV Drama

Wow! This is the second straight year that Claire Danes won this award!  She certainly has a lock on it!  I guess I may really have to watch this TV series now especially that this series has been winning awards left and right, from different award giving bodies.  

I have a lot of respect for Claire Danes, although she dissed my country, for being dirty and full of cockroaches.  Anyway, it's true but so are other countries - like her own - so fair is fair Ms. Danes.  I digress.  

I saw her in that TV movie Temple Grandin and she was amazing!!  She just bravely took the role and made us appreciate what the real Temple Grandin gave the world!

Touched by the Courage of Temple Grandin

While watching some tennis at the Australian Open today, I chanced upon the HBO movie Temple Grandin starring Clare Danes - who does a fantastic performance here!  I was really touched by the movie!  Imagine if Temple didn't have that courageous teacher of hers, played by David Strathairn, she would have completely missed on what she could offer the world!  There are many scenes in the movie that showed her courage and her determination to fulfill what she felt was her mission in this world.  Her life story is truly a source of inspiration whether you have an autistic child or not.  The truth is, even "normal" people would be hard put to achieve what she has done.  She truly is an inspiration!  Thanks Temple for giving us that!
