Trivia / Temple Grandin

• Dawson Casting:
  • Danes plays Temple from high school to college (and beyond—from roughly ages 18 to 31) . They did have a child actor to play Temple in the flashbacks to her early childhood, but there's only two scenes shown of that (and even then the girl supposed to be playing 4-year-old Temple looks 8.)
  • Julia Ormond, who plays Temple's mother, could also count as this—she looks virtually the same across thirty years, playing her from 1951 to 1981.
