For Your ReConsideration: Lincoln (2012)

OscarWatch Podcast

Happy Fourth of July! We continue our 'America! F---, Yeah!' series with a look back at the most American president ever, Steven Spielberg's 2012 Best Picture nominee, Lincoln. Let's pour a toast out to all of those poor bastards who were nominated for Best Actor alongside Daniel Day Lewis, though as we will quickly realize, our hosts are far from in sync about this movie and DDL's performance. Can the first three minutes of a movie really force someone to walk out? Yes, yes they can. Plus, remember when the film came out when all was hopeful? Yeah, neither do we and now this movie is just depressing. Things have changed in politics...but have they really? That and so much more this week on the podcast. So, in the immortal words of Honest Abe himself: "Party on, dudes!" and be sure to tell us your thoughts at [email protected] and find us on social media @oscarwatchpod Next week on our series, America ain't nothing but a con job and therefore, we Hustling this one.
