LINCOLN (2012) on Showtime streaming platforms and Amazon. Has “The Post” put you in the mood for more Steven Spielberg? Does “Phantom Thread” have you on a Daniel Day-Lewis kick? Whatever your reasons for revisiting it might be, Mr. Spielberg’s film about Abraham Lincoln during the waning days of both the Civil War and the president’s own life is, A. O. Scott of The New York Times wrote, “among the finest films ever made about American politics.” (He also called that “a fairly low bar.”) Mr. Day-Lewis plays Abraham Lincoln, and Sally Field is Mary Todd Lincoln; Tony Kushner wrote the screenplay.
