NOW, on TCM, powerful.

(M.Moore just powerful on Ayman, begging President Biden to stop providing 'fuel' to netanyahu, and save #### lives.)

1. Been watching this amazing movie/documentary.

Need to watch again, but what I am taking away is....we have always been a divided nation and 2) A righteous argument prevails.

Danial Day Lewis is incredible as President Lincoln. Loved Tommy Lee Jone's moment in this film as well. A lot of great acting in this movie.

3. Great cast!

Of course DDL is one of the truly great actors of our time. How good? My Left Foot, good.

4. Day-Lewis did well in the film.

I have a hard time respecting him as a professional actor, though. Not because of his acting; he’s brilliant, obviously.

But because of his poor professionalism on occasion. I read once where he was in the middle of a performance as Hamlet when he broke character and walked off the stage, telling the audience he just didn’t have anything left to give.

I’ve never been a big fan of the ‘tortured Method-acting artist’ bit. I think it’s ridiculously self-indulgent. And it’s really unprofessional to quit in the middle of a performance for a paying audience.
