I loved this film...it was so great.

[MadameTamma]

she probably just misspoke. temple was only seen as a child in the late 40's for a few scenes in the movie. most of the film does take place in the late 60's and 70's so it was easy for her to slip up.

maybe it's just a bit mistake

[billjoe39]

I guess people can now be more content with their meat eating since Temple has shown everybody how humane slaughterhouses have since become because of her efforts...I presume that was the whole point of the film being made ( other than to show autism )?
