Danes did a terrific job. I went into it knowing a lot about autism but very little about Grandin, so I was a little surprised by the "slaughterhouse design" aspect of her work. She did mention the importance of manners in the movie, which made sense to me because autistics tend to like the rigid rules. Though their interpretations of the rules may vary. Danes is (perhaps unintentionally) hilarious when she says "Hii'mtemplegrandinit'snicetomeetyou" over and over while meeting a small group of people.
