Lincoln - loved, loved, loved it!

I saw Lincoln last night and I thought it was amazing. Beautifully shot with humour and sensitive, wonderful performances. I thought Sally Field was utterly convincing as the complex, emotional, frightened wife. Daniel Day-Lewis is so good I have no words and I always adore David Strathearn (spelling?) It was just a beautiful evocation of a time and a proper political thriller. If you like The West Wing you would love this - just has more beards

Hoping to see it soon am a Spielberg junkie

I loved it too - and I love your description as West Wing with more beards!

[MercedesKing]

Have had a ear of The West Wing! I have always been a big fun of Lincoln by reading much of stories about him! Can fell what you described here!

loved it too, esp. Tommy Lee Jones

Does anyone else think it's amusing that there's a Brit imported to play Lincoln, and a Yank imported to play Thatcher?
