The Fogies followed a well-planned yet circuitous path and found themselves suddenly at the slaughterhouse. Our final regular film is about that wonder, that legend, Temple Grandin! Film fans see in pictures too, Temple. Thanks for taking us out of the world on a wave of serenity.

Temple Grandin - dir. Mick Jackson - 2010

She’s ‘bout that diamond
