No, I’m not linking to an article about Ben Wade or Clement Vallandigham, but modern day critics viewing the President’s actions on celluloid (or whatever its digital equivalent is called!) The reviews for Spielberg’s Lincoln are looking pretty promising. Yay!
The LA Times praises Day-Lewis – whose other film credentials include My Left Foot and There Will Be Blood – saying: "Judging by both the events on-screen and in the room, Day-Lewis, a longtime Oscar favorite, solidified his status as a lead actor contender. He plays the lead role with an understated quality, often speaking in quiet, lyrical tones instead of the more scenery-chewing moments glimpsed in the trailer."
