    Smug and pedantic. Less about Lincoln, more about Spielberg telling himself "what a good boy am I." Totally agenda driven. DDL was EXCELLENT, though.

    "Lincoln" has the appearance of a low budget PBS effort. A poor film, dark small scenes, historicaly inaccurate, slanted to make Lincoln look to be as people imagine and not reality. Too bad many viewers will believe this to be history.
