LINCOLN


 "LINCOLN" (2012)

"This is a 2012 American biographical historical drama film directed and produced by Steven Spielberg. It stars Daniel Day-Lewis as United States President Abraham Lincoln. It features Sally Field, David Strathairn, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, James Spader, Hal Holbrook, and Tommy Lee Jones in supporting roles. They all gave wonderful performances, but I felt that Daniel Day Lewis and Sally Field, did incredible jobs!" "The screenplay by Tony Kushner was loosely based on Doris Kearns Goodwin's 2005 biography Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln and covers the final four months of Lincoln's life. The film focuses on Lincoln's efforts in January 1865 to abolish slavery and involuntary servitude by having the Thirteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution passed by the United States House of Representatives."
It received a great deal of critical acclaim and many accolades. It was nominated for 12 Academy Awards and won 2; "Best Actor in a Leading Role" was won by Daniel Day Lewis, which it is included in the schedule. It also run "Best Achievement in Production Design." It was nominated for 316 additional awards and honors from various entities. Out of those nominations, it won exactly 100. To say it was a critical success would be a great understatement!
