The film Lincoln, in my opinion accurately portrays the end of slavery. There were multiple things that happened in history in the movie in order to show the end, for example, Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation that he set in order to help the slaves become free. It also showed the struggles that came with the decision of ending slavery as all the men had to vote on whether they wanted the amendment or not. It showed how Lincoln kept his mind on setting them free while attempting to become lenient with some men who did not want it to happen although he knew ultimately what he should have done (free them). Although the slaves themselves also did a lot in order to be free like attempting to escape and go into the military but the movie Lincoln really shows how Lincoln tried and succeeded at freeing them.
