When you have about 50 minutes on your hands, meet Kim Peek, the real life Rainman (which is to say that the movie was loosely based on his life):

It would have been interesting to "know" Kim before Rainman, which seems to have had a profoundly positive impact on his self image and socialization skills during the intervening years.  I'd imagine that Dustin Hoffman's portrayal would seem much more spot on if we were afforded a glimpse of what he was able to observe at that time.

 

Edit:  I'm just learning about Kim Peek, and didn't realize that he died in December 19, 2009 at the age of 58.  It was a Saturday.  This year it will be a Thursday.  He was survived by his father, who was his life long companion and care taker. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kim_Peek

Refreshing dip anyone?
