Lincoln

Steven Spielberg directed and produced Lincoln, a 2012 American biographical historical drama film starring Daniel Day-Lewis as US President Abraham Lincoln. Sally Field, David Strathairn, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, James Spader, Hal Holbrook, and Tommy Lee Jones all appear in supporting parts in the film.

Steven Spielberg, the renowned American filmmaker, took on the huge job of directing a biopic about the great American president Abraham Lincoln and rose to the occasion with one of his most exquisite directing performances to date. The film's main focus is on Lincoln's effort to affirm the abolition of slavery, but since that work is so tightly linked to the conclusion of the American Civil War, it fits neatly within the war movie genre. It's a demonstration of Lincoln's abilities as a legislator as well as a statesman attempting to bring two half of a warring country together.
