Lincoln Movie - Your Reviews

[Mark MacKenzie]

Yes, I do understand.

I have wondered if Lincoln actually considered his martyrdom as good for the country and put himself in harm's way purposely and also to end his own personal tragic depression. A death wish. But after thinking more about it and reading alot on this forum, decided maybe thats not true.

I'm sure they considered including the assassination and it would have been incredible to see what Spielberg would do. I bet he would do a close up of Mary's face realizing he was shot.
The scene of the second inaugural was a resurrection of sorts.

I hope I haven't spoiled the movie. Rob, don't read this until after you see it...
