boomers did all kinds of stupid shit back then

>DUDE LINCOLN'S WHOLE LIFE WAS THE 13TH AMENDMENT LMAO

No, people argued and talked like we do nowadays. Vocabulary used to be a lot richer, and a manner of speaking much more coherent though, so to modern zoomies it sounds like monologues.

>Most memorable scene is a man just responding "Niggers"
It's not all that different

lincoln was an atheist with a lunatic wife and zero plan on how they would feed the few million niggers they freed in the south after the war

over a million people starved to death in the South between 1865 and 1866 and most of them were blacks who we are now told were overjoyed to be ejected into a life of even more misery and depredation than they had ever enjoyed while property

I'm glad Lincoln got shot, shame it didn't happen earlier

It's just one movie, calm down user. Are you also upset the movie Waterloo doesn't begin with Napoleon being born and growing up on Corsica?

This shit was so fucking boring. His

Adam driver was actually just role playing in the library and they sat up the cameras and crew and started filming the scene

Jared Harris was great in this.

Yes, the only movie in like 40 years that's supposed to be autobiographical about Lincoln. I'm allowed to be disappointed by their extremely narrow depiction of his life.

this was torture almost as if a woman was involved in the creative process somewhere... just bad.

You should be thankful for what you have, rewatch Young Mr. Lincoln, and wait another 40 years for the 1862 tax policy debate movie

Dude compressing 56 years into a couple hours is guaranteed to miss a ton of nuance. There are tradeoffs to both biopic approaches. One is certainly not objectively better than the other.

actually this has been debunked

yes it has been revised upwards

What was his problem?

he actively wanted to avoid a large pitched battle costing men on either side because he didn't want to alienate Southern voters when he ran for president

the comparisons to Napoleon aren't for nothing, the guy really did want to be America's Bonaparte

Turtle player.

>Waterloo
that movie is about Waterloo.
Lincoln categorically ISN'T about Lincoln. It's propaganda.
