Product Description

From DreamWorks, Steven Spielberg directs two-time Academy Award(R) winner Daniel Day-Lewis (Best Actor, THERE WILL BE BLOOD, 2007, and MY LEFT FOOT, 1989) in LINCOLN -- with an all-star ensemble cast including Sally Field, Tommy Lee Jones and Joseph Gordon-Levitt. This inspiring and revealing drama focuses on the 16th President's tumultuous final four months in office as this visionary leader pursues a course of action to end the Civil War, unite the country and abolish slavery. Complete with never-before-seen footage featuring Steven Spielberg and the cast, who take you deep inside the making of the movie, LINCOLN sheds light on a man of moral courage and fierce determination.

View larger As with the great John Ford (Young Mr. Lincoln) before him, it would be out of character for Steven Spielberg to construct a conventional, cradle-to-grave portrait of a historical figure. In drawing from Doris Kearns Goodwin's Team of Rivals, the director instead depicts a career-defining moment in the career of Abraham Lincoln (an uncharacteristically restrained Daniel Day-Lewis). With the Civil War raging, and the death toll rising, the president focuses his energies on passage of the 13th Amendment. Even those sympathetic to the cause question his timing, but Lincoln doesn't see the two issues as separate, and the situation turns personal when his son, Robert (Joseph Gordon-Levitt), chooses to enlist rather than to study law. While still mourning the loss of one son, Mary (Sally Field) can't bear to lose another. Playwright Tony Kushner, who adapted the screenplay, takes a page from the procedural handbook in tracing Lincoln's steps to win over enough representatives to abolish slavery, while simultaneously bringing a larger-than-life leader down to a more manageable size. In his stooped-shoulder slouch and Columbo-like speech, Day-Lewis succeeds so admirably that the more outspoken characters, like congressman Thaddeus Stevens (Tommy Lee Jones) and lobbyist W.N. Bilbo (James Spader), threaten to steal the spotlight whenever they enter the scene, but the levity of their performances provides respite from the complicated strategizing and carnage-strewn battlefields. If Lincoln doesn't thrill like the Kushner-penned Munich, there's never a dull moment--though it would take a second viewing to catch all the political nuances. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

Historically correct and very well acted! U can feel the pain of Lincoln’s decisions weighing on him.
A must watch for anyone who is historically illiterate and a solid acted movie for those who want a little historical theater.

Lincoln had things with which he struggled.......both personally and professionally. This move is emotional and gives the viewer the struggles with which he was dealing in the last days of the Civil War and how he handled them.

PROGRESS ISN'T ALWAYS PRETTY

Reviewed in the United States on May 22, 2013

Steven Spielberg's LINCOLN is a movie that requires rapt audience participation. It requires some knowledge or understanding of the period and the issues at hand, and expectation that you are about to witness the likes of a stage play made for the screen. Spielberg's deft imagery, photographed as always by stellar cinematographer Janusz Kaminski, is canvased in shadows of dark and light, perhaps emphasizing the pallor that hangs over the country after four years of war and thousands of deaths. Lincoln, in the unenviable position of making a choice between ending slavery or ending the war, knows that any outcome wherein the war ends prior to passing the 13th Amendment will likely make the Amendment null and void since peace terms agreed to prior to a vote are likely to include the South's desire to keep its slaves. Thus, the political game is again mired in the dingy mud and dirt of vehement disagreement over ending more needless soldiers' deaths or freeing countless slaves. Tony Kushner's script is a eloquent reminder that just like today, politics and progress come at a great cost.

The film is a 'talker' and requires solid listening skills as I found the audio to be substandard for a lot of the dialogue. Daniel Day-Lewis is a masterful Lincoln, but the requirements of the role (him working an American accent from older days along with Lincoln's soft-spoken manner) work against the microphone, and I often had to repeat part of the film just to catch a gist of what was said. It is one of the major disappointments with this film, as every pause brought me out of the 1865 world Spielberg and his crew worked so hard to recreate, and back into my living room. That aside, the movie is full of terrific performances and Lewis again is worthy of the Oscar that was again bestowed upon him. Sally Field plays Mary Todd Lincoln, caught between the loneliness of being a President's wife and the tragedy she's had to endure losing a son. Their marriage having become a struggle, Field is fairly adept at traversing that line between appearing completely manipulative and sadly victimized. An interesting appearance by Joseph Gordon-Levitt (an actor I'm enjoying more and more as he ages) as Lincoln's eldest son, adds a nice touch of father-son angst, and another layer to Lincoln's character. Tommy Lee Jones to me is always Tommy Lee Jones, and is fun to watch, no matter who he is playing. He has a personality that captures the camera, whether you like him or not, and he owns the scenes in which he appears. However, it is David Strathairn who holds this film's balance in his hands. As Secretary of State Seward, every push in the script comes from him, and it is his job to somehow deliver lines of expository dialogue informing the audience of how these stakes add up to a cohesive problem over and over. And each time, he reminds you why he is one of our most unheralded and unknown actors. Along with the veteran presence of Hal Holbrook, this ensemble puts together a rewarding journey if you're willing to stick with it.

Lincoln is rated PG-13 for some violence and is really not for children. Kids will likely not be able to sit through this.

pour nous, petites gens ,qui ne sommes pas présidents, il me semble que le seul obstacle à nos idées idéalistes , consiste en notre impuissance... Là , j'ai découvert qu'un idéaliste au pouvoir pouvait aussi être conffronté à une autre grande question : si j'arrive à donner des droits à des minorités opprimées , quelle conséquences - changements - pour l'avenir cela amènera-t-il ? Je ne peux connaître tous les changements qui en découleront ... Il y a bien du courage à prendre le risque de toutes ces incertitudes.
Par ailleurs , ce film nous présente un A. Lincoln, conteur littéraire, homme discret , et confronté à bien des charges familiales,
une présentation si porteuse de dimension humaine ...

In 1863, two years into the American Civil War, President Abraham 'Abe' Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation under his presidential authority as commander in chief of the armed forces. It affected those states (the Confederates) still rebelling against the North (the Union). Many of those emancipated slaves joined the Union army. In early 1865, while the civil war still continued, Lincoln determines to push through a 13th amendment to the United States Constitution, abolishing slavery once and for all. He is also in a position to negotiate the end of the four year war which would spare the lives of hundreds, maybe thousands, of fighting soldiers. However, his dilemma is that if the war should end before the amendment is passed then the abolition of slavery and the misery that slavery causes might not happen any time soon. His only solution is to persuade enough politicians to see his point of view and vote for the 13th amendment.

Some have said that Lincoln (2012) was too long but, for me, it wasn't long enough. I could happily sit through hours of clever debate, amusing repartee, and listen to Lincoln's anecdotal stories which were supposed to serve as some kind of moral relating to the subject at hand. The cast was particularly impressive and I could not imagine anyone better than Daniel Day-Lewis in the lead except, perhaps, the late Gregory Peck. Tommy Lee Jones seemed a little misplaced as an elderly politician sporting a ludicrous wig but that's because my mind has him typecast as a United States Marshal. It's going to take some time for me to shake off that younger image.

While bad language is limited in Lincoln (2012), there are some scenes of violence and rather graphic scenes of the horrors and casualties of war. They do serve a purpose, to emphasise the dilemma facing Lincoln - end the war and risk slavery continuing - and I suppose without them the movie might have seemed a little superficial.

All in all Lincoln adds up to a fine 150 minute movie and certainly worth a second look. I was glad to have watched it on a Blu-ray, the quality of video and sound making great viewing.

As many of us already know, Abraham Lincoln came rather late in discovering that no good deed goes unpunished.
