Lincoln is doing well in theaters despite historical evidence to the contrary.

I saw Lincoln tonight in Plano. It was nearly flawless.

There were a few uneven performances, but proof to the contrary may well lie on the editing room floor.

This year my favorite joke is: "Lincoln is doing well in theaters despite historical evidence to the contrary."

Of course we all know how the film ends, but the journey is immense and wonderful in so many ways. Daniel Day Lewis was as good as any might hope. Sally Field, David Strathaim, James Spader, and Tommy Lee Jones were amazing. Hal Holbrook was perfect too, but then he always seems to be.

The film moved me to tears, the first film to do so since the opening montage of UP!

Please support this film.
