    LINCOLN (and the passage of the 13th Amendment)

    Spoiler alert: It ain't about Lincoln as much as it chronicles the last four months of Lincoln's life and his ceaseless efforts--through cajolery, browbeating, and the trading of patronage jobs--to get the 13th Amendment to the United States Constitution (which abolished slavery and involuntary servitude, except as punishment for a crime) passed by a rambunctious and disorganized House of Representatives. This 2012 American biographical historical drama film directed and produced by Steven Spielberg, stars Daniel Day-Lewis as United States President Abraham Lincoln. The film also features Sally Field, David Strathairn, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, James Spader, Hal Holbrook, and Tommy Lee Jones in supporting roles. I give it three stars.

  • Primarily for history fans.

    I love history, so I thought this was wonderful. Great acting, dialogue, the whole deal. But I can't imagine the average movie viewer liking this at all. It is not exciting. There is no romance, no surprises. Just good, honest, and moving history.

  • better than expected, more detail than a giant marble statue, simple, in-depth and sweetly done

    Great political detail and great accuracy concerning what was recorded behind the scenes of the ratification of the 13 amendment. Most of all thee film gave Thaddeus Stevens a character. His influence within the abolition movement has been about eliminated but the 13th would not have been passed without him and likely Lincoln would have not considered emancipation in the broad strokes which he did. I have a lot of Thaddius stories and know a great deal about him and it is tempting to share them here... but is it appropriate? He was the greatest legal mind of his day and one of the more astute business leaders having been born crippled, abandoned by his father and raised by a mother who was dirt poor. He developed a disease which caused all the hair on his body to fall out- eyebrows, eyelashes all of it. He lived with a Black woman most of his adult life and was more comfortable hanging with Black men socially. He always got invited to the BBQ and walked the walk of his talk. He held President Johnson 's feet to the flames concerning the president's allowing transgressions by the rebel traitors to commit against the freed population during Reconstruction and his abysmal policies being used to reduce the Feds effectiveness in making the traitorous south a democracy. He spent the rest of his life fighting that man and more or less died in congress doing so. His actions hindered the south's recapturing the plantation system through indentured servitude and allowed thousands of freed slaves the time and opportunity to escape the reorganization of the treasonous survivors and the near duplication of the plantation system. whew, that's probably too much but there is much more. All the actors are at the top pf their game, set work is impeccable. I liked this movie and have already watched it a few times.

  • Lincoln is the director's concept with as much attention t actual history as could be reasonably delivered. Impressive.

    This captures just the segment of the Lincoln Presidency that allows a portrait of the man and his wife going into the vote for Emancipation, then his effort to reuniify the country and the economic ravages left behind by the hug casualties of the Civil War. Lewis and Fields delivered totally believable portrayals of the Lincolns.

  • Pay Close Attention

    Watched it once and thought 'very good, but I missed a few things'. Why? Because there is so much there. The acting, the dialogue, the presentation of a time in history few living could fully comprehend its significance. That observation holds true today, as well. So, I watched 'Lincoln' another time, connecting to dots. Each time I watch this extraordinary movie about an extraordinary man, it gets better. There is as much to understand and there is to appreciate. My compliments to Mr. Spielberg. Five stars all the way.

  • too dark

    Not as great as expected. Photography very dark-not the suspenseful darkness but just sort of boring. Too documentary-honestly, I don't know why this received so many nominations.

  • Lincoln.....My Favorite President!

    The true storyline, excellent sets, and the very high-quality actors make this one of the best movies I have seen! President Lincoln had a lot on his plate but managed to negotiate a very difficult time in our history with honor, dignity and good old common sense.

  • A Powerful Movie From A Spectacular Director.

    This is a great movie that centers around Lincoln's desire to end Slavery. The movie is a little slow, but the all-star cast makes up for it. The movie came in perfect shape, and shipping was fast.
