Looks good, but i didnt like the sound of Lewis voice for some reason? It didnt sound distinguished enough.


Also, the trailer is waaaay overdone. Its basically screamin out "Look at me, look at me....Oscar Bait!!!"

A number of Lincoln historians believe his voice was higher pitched and in stark contrast to his large 6'4" frame. I read about it a while back, but apparently it was still a terrific voice for cutting through large crowds and delivering amazing and poignant speeches.

Not seeing this movie makes you a commie.

I'm going to place a little faith in John Williams, but that trailer could have been the score for any generic Oscar broadcast 'In Memoriam' segment.

EDIT: I must add, if DDL offers up even a HINT of the Speilberg stare I will lose my SHIT!!

Man, this looks disappointing. I'll probably still see it for the cast. But I'll wait for Netflix.

Not only historians, but those who heard him speak in person: http://showcase.netins.net/web/creat...es/speaker.htm

After reading that some time ago, I can't help but think of a competent Barney Fife (same quality of high voice), which seems rather common in that part of the country.

I'm looking forward to this, even if it's hard to imagine a treatment that would be really satisfying.

John Williams does not score trailers

I thought the trailer they played after the debate was 10 times better than the one posted here.

Wow. That looks incredible.

I hope Tommy Lee Jones doesn't ruin it.

Anyone seen this yet?
I'm deciding between seeing this or Argo tonight.
