Looks like Daniel Day-Lewis has done it again in this trailer for Steven Spielberg’s LINCOLN.

The film will definitely have some Oscar buzz surrounding it. I was overtaken by the colors and cinematography displayed in the first trailer. It really takes someone like Spielberg to tackle such a major figure in history. Right after the trailer, Spielberg and Joseph Gordon-Levitt did a live chat about the film. You can check it out by heading here.

Steven Spielberg directs two-time Academy Award® winner Daniel Day-Lewis in “Lincoln,” a revealing drama that focuses on the 16th President’s tumultuous final months in office. In a nation divided by war and the strong winds of change, Lincoln pursues a course of action designed to end the war, unite the country and abolish slavery. With the moral courage and fierce determination to succeed, his choices during this critical moment will change the fate of generations to come.
