Steven Spielberg has somehow resurrected Abraham Lincoln because I didn't see Daniel Day Lewis once in this movie. Tommy Lee Jones is good & James Spader does his job well as the comic relief. While the movie is very interesting, I didn't get fully on board until Joseph Gordon Levitt's story line causes tension between honest Abe & his wife. Never the less your experience with this film would be much better if you know the history of the passing of the 13th amendment. I have no doubt in my mind that Daniel Day Lewis will nab the Oscar for best actor & It is my opinion that this movie will win Best Picture at the Oscars despite the fact that it isn't the best of the year.
4/5
