Saw the preview when I went to see Looper today. I think the trailer was underwhelming. But daniel day lewis in a spielberg movie? I'll take it.

PS- I think Sally Fields was such a great casting choice. She just always nails it.

Interesting article on the casting:

It's starting to look more promising!!!! I was reading an article about how Spielberg came to choose Daniel day lewis, and how much prepping Lewis did for the role!!! amazing amazing amazing.

Lincoln stills

The screeners for 'Lincoln' have appeared now, and before I say anything more, I think it should be seen with some acquaintance with the background beforehand as it is a costume/legislative drama. This film is a civics lesson.

"That we here highly resolve

that these dead shall not have died in vain

—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom

—and that government of the people, by the people, for the people,

-shall not perish from the earth."
