en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lincoln_%282012_film%29Anyone else excited for this movie? As somebody who is fascinated by this man I for one cannot wait. Daniel Day Lewis is the perfect role for Lincoln aswell - probably the best actor in the world and he looks the spitting image of him in the film. Wonder if it will sweep the Oscars?

As an avid reader of all things American Civil War related I have to say i'm not looking forward to it. These films rarely catch the tone or personality of the subject. Mainly because a few hours just isn't time enough to do it. I hope its a good introduction for those unfamiliar to that area of history and I'm sure i'll give it a go.

I'm very much looking forward to it. Just because it is Speilberg and Daniel Day Lewis (the amazing Daniel Day Lewis). Lincoln is an amazing figure and it's very difficult to make a good movie about him. If it comes near John Ford's Young Mr. Lincoln, in terms of quality, then I'll be happy. It could very well be an Oscar contender along with the mammoth that is Cloud Atlas.
