You hear that sound? Yep, I’m pretty sure that was Daniel Day-Lewis’s Oscar win for his performance as Abraham Lincoln reaching back through time to say “YEAH BOYEEE.” Indeed, it’s the first trailer ever for Steven Spielberg’s long in-development biopic Lincoln, with Daniel Day-Lewis filling out the stovepipe. At a glace, this trailer definitely calls to mind last year’s War Horse, in terms of tone, but the cast is so stuffed to the gills with amazing performances that it’s pretty likely this one’s going to pick up a bunch of Oscar nominations.
This remains one of my most anticipated movies of the fall, so November can’t come fast enough!
