"He needed to abolish slavery by constitutional measure," said Spielberg about the new film, "and that’s where we start.

"Lincoln had a very, very complicated – and at the same time, extremely clear — inner life. He thought things out. He talked things out. He argued both sides of every issue. And he was very careful in making any decision. As a matter of fact, his opponents and his enemies criticized him often for being impossibly slow to a decision.”

"Lincoln" opens November 2012.
