A well-made and deeply affecting historical drama

Rating: Null/10 (11 February 2018)

The film "Lincoln" brings us back to a defining moment in the American history, namely the pass of the Thirteenth Amendment; and tells about the last four months' life of Abraham Lincoln, one of the most beloved American presidents. It is definitely one of the best historical drama ever, thanks to its brilliant screenplay, original score, acting performances, costume, production design, hair/makeup, and cinematography. The several monologues and speeches delivered by Daniel Day-Lewis is among the finest moments of his splendid acting career. Adam Driver, who was unknown at the time of shooting, plays a minor role in the film, which is sort of interesting. All in all, this is a must-see film for every American.
