Abraham Lincoln is the 16th President who was born February 12, 1809, in Kentucky. The movie was about Lincolns time in office around the final months of his life. During the movie it is in time of war and Lincoln designs a plan in order to end it. While ending the war he plans to eliminate slavery and reunite the country as one. The beginning of the movie he is trying to add the 13 amendment which is to abolish slavery. He was scared that since the civil war was bout to be done that the courts would not accept his emancipation proclamation. The rest of the movie was based upon whether or not the amendment would be passed or not. With the amendment the movie fasts fowards a few months to the night when lincoln was shot.
Through my experience of watching the movie it was really interesting to me for the reason in 11th grade US history I wrote my 10 pg. paper on Abraham Lincoln. Writting this paper had me really interested the whole entire time for the reason I could actually picture and see what it could have been like if i was there watching him during his term. Although it made me wonder why did the producers not want to do a whole presentation on Lincoln and his whole life.
