I was hoping for a movie about Lincoln that was not focused on the 14th amendment.
Dorris Goodwin specializes in books about her heroes, routinely democrats.
I am a fan of Daniel Day Lewis and have no problem with him as Abe, but the movie darned near ignored the way Abe ignored laws and should have explained Abes role in causing the war.
With a cost of 630,000 combat deaths, one would think the film could have done a better job.
To me the movie was trying to make the current crop of liberals seem like good people.
