Title: Spielberg movie about Abraham Lincoln Post by: Hoss on April 20, 2012, 07:44:42 am I had no idea this was even being filmed.
And Daniel Day Lewis playing Lincoln. This has epic WIN all over it. It's evidently based on a book called "Team of Rivals" by Doris Kearns Goodwin. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0443272/ Here's a look at DDL in character during the filming (this was taken in Richmond, VA) (http://i.huffpost.com/gen/422353/DANIEL-DAY-LEWIS-LINCOLN.jpg) Title: Re: Spielberg movie about Abraham Lincoln Post by: Conan71 on April 20, 2012, 07:52:38 am I never knew Abe was a Levis and Nike kind of guy.

Something happens in a Theatre "Booth" I just cant remember what.

Ted Nugent has a small role at the end. Title: Re: Spielberg movie about Abraham Lincoln Post by: Hoss on April 20, 2012, 12:59:34 pm Spoiler Alert! Ted Nugent has a small role at the end. The movie, from Spielberg's own lips, will NOT include anything related to Booth. It likely will stop at him and the missus attending the Theatre and after that I'm guessing screen narration as to what happened next. Although anyone of adult age should know the ending. Of course, they're still in post; that's always likely to change. I'm a geek for this era. I watch Ken Burns' 'Civil War' series at least once a year. Still one of the best historical documentaries ever made. Title: Re: Spielberg movie about Abraham Lincoln Post by: DolfanBob on April 20, 2012, 01:14:33 pm Spoiler Alert!

Have you been known to frequent 11th Street? Hang out with Paul Tay by chance? ::) Title: Re: Spielberg movie about Abraham Lincoln Post by: sgrizzle on April 21, 2012, 11:32:46 am No; that sounds more like your style.

Note: for those of you thinking that Lincoln's voice was deep, you'll be disappointed, as many in the crowd during his famous address at Gettysburg in Nov of 1863 report that his voice is high pitched and shrill. It appears that Daniel Day Lewis portrays it in that manner.
