RE: Lincoln Movie - Your Reviews
in the Movie how they choose to end it it was very well thought throught and they I thought they picked the perfect person to play Lincoln. Daniel DAy LEwis did a wonderful job of portraying Abraham.
I think it would honestly be very fun to go into public speacking about the Lincolns. Abraham's speeches were absolutly brilliant and the movie sttributed t o them well. I also think that Ms Keckley was an interesting part to Mary's life. |

Mary's love of fashion was part of her personna - and something that modern audiences can relate to. Having not yet seen the film, did they even mention the series of deaths of farmily members that occurred which would cause her mourning? No, not really. All they really talk about is Willie, hence why, to me, any emphasis on the mourning would have been associated with him, not her other relatives. |

I will try to see the film again at some point. Maybe as a DVD. Are there any Lincoln buffs that overall give it a thumbs down on this forum? I mean overall. There maybe parts you didn't like, but overall would anyone give it the Siskel and Ebert thumbs down? |
