It feels mostly like an antique, but even antiques have their own particular beauties.

Brilliant flashes of direction permeate the entire film, and it remains distinctively a product of the great master.

Working with the sort of mythic material later associated with John Ford, Griffith gives us a primordial Lincoln, perfectly incarnated by Walter Huston, and a dreamlike sense of destiny that his camera fully articulates.

An archaic biopic.
August 19, 2013
Sympathetic, sophisticated and, for those with a keen eye, echoed in the work of Hitchcock and Welles.
August 19, 2013
It is quite a worthy pictorial offering with a genuinely fine and inspiring performance by Walter Huston in the role of the martyred President.

Abraham Lincoln is a startlingly superlative accomplishment.

D. W. Griffith's first sound film, from 1930, is as ungainly and majestic as its subject.
