Lincoln, directed by Steven Spielberg.
Written by Tony Kushner. Based on the book Team of Rivals by Doris Kearns Goodwin.
Starring Daniel Day-Lewis, Sally Field, David Strathairn, and Tommy Lee Jones.
Rated PG-13 for an intense scene of war violence, some images of carnage, and brief strong language.
Running time: 150 minutes.
