I appreciate this movie with great awe. Spielberg is worthy of being a real great director. In Lincoln's legendary life, he pulled out the most memorable and touching story. , but did not blindly transform it into a "Great Cause of National Founding" that sings praises. The Lincoln in the film is not a tall figure. He is tall and thin, even hunchbacked. His hands are almost down to his knees. It is extremely difficult to straighten his waist. Only those eyes are so piercing, as if they have already drooped. old! He has flesh and blood, has his own wife, and has his own children. Although he lost one because of the war, his family has played a large part of his life. Although he is also exhausted, he does not have such a big exaggeration, but a Lincoln is like this. Makes me feel how tall he is!
The old actor Lewis has already won two Oscar statuettes, and when I write, his third statuette has also fallen from the sky because of this film. Regarding Lewis' acting skills, I believe all senior movie fans and friends should have it. What I am impressed by is that his excellent performance shows such a character so far away from us at close range in front of us, with melancholy and deep eyes, bleak and lonely back, heavy and sincere language, as if I had traveled to the United States. The age of constant war between the North and the South!
The quality of the film itself is not what I thought about discussing too much, because I believe that all friends who see this film will see it for all to see. As a biographical film, it has been nominated for 12 Oscars, which is perfect! Although he missed out in the final competition for several awards, he still couldn't hide his brilliance!
In addition to acting, the most commendable part of the film is the director Spielberg's contribution! It is not easy to extract such a fragment in such a long decades and condense it into a film of more than two hours, and yet to summarize the life of this character in a high degree! Although the film did not mention Lincoln's past experience, the director cleverly told many past experiences through "Lincoln" itself, interspersed with memories of the past, sporadic but not fragmentary, and became a character that runs through this character. An important part of life!
In the narration process, the most commendable thing is that the film did not exaggerate the war between the North and the South at that time, nor did it exaggerate the tall and stalwart, but put everything on the screen truly and truly, and the Republicans and Democrats spat at each other in the House of Representatives. , The differences within the party are dark, in order to pass the election or even bribe the election, and even make the infighting between people from different factions extraordinarily detailed, and the contradiction to Lincoln himself is also very prominent! He didn't even know if what he was doing was right or wrong. His views on people of color are not as open and fair as they used to be. He even doubts whether his decision is right or wrong. He is hesitant to push for the passage of Bill 13 or accept the South’s request for peace. His struggle is lost. It is especially important in the film. Contrary to what we imagined, he was not decisive, nor was he filled with righteous indignation. Behind every decision he made was accompanied by his long-term thinking and consideration. This is the real history. This is the real history. Movies, this is true art!
Tribute to Spielberg, Tribute to Lincoln!
Looking forward to one day Chinese films can also be true and sincere, reaching a new artistic realm, instead of false storytelling to embellish peace!
If you have the opportunity, I hope to go to the cinema to see it! You can also go and see such a heavy but not heavy movie!
