Lincoln

“Lincoln”

A surprisingly subtle movie

Conjuring the past

History remade

 

The 16^th president

The folksy deliberation

The Idiosyncrasies

The Contradictions

Of an actual human being

 

Cinematic Americana

Something grubbier than Americana

Pomp and historical circumstance

A fascinating movie

Hushed and intimate

Exquisitely right

Inspiring

 “Lincoln,” directed by Stephen Spielberg, sounds like it is going to be an “important movie” as well as an entertaining movie.  I plan to see it this weekend.
