Biography of Abraham Lincoln as a young man in 1831 until he is elected U.S. President in the 1860 election.   Elizabeth EdwardsAldrich Bowker   ...

  Judge Bowling GreenMaurice Murphy   ... Louis worked as head designer for Columbia Pictures from 1944 to 1960. Raymond Massey played the role of Lincoln in the stage play; though he died before this film was made, Robert Todd Lincoln even remarked that Massey's voice was quite like his father's.

To begin with, is the near perfect physical and emotional representation of Lincoln by Raymond Massey.   Joshua SpeedAlan Baxter   ... Given the photographs of the pre-president Lincoln, making Massey into sixteenth president seems nearly ordained from the beginning. The film just seems to find the vital essence of young Lincoln before he became president.

The on-location or natural shots are superior by black and white standards. He remained a pleasant presence in scores of films of the 1940s and 1950s while continuing to work on the stage and on television.   Billy HerndonHarvey Stephens   ...   Dr. ChandlerTrevor Bardette   ... At that time, the two scenes that struck me as most memorable to my young mind was the one where the local woman tells Lincoln that he is the homeliest man in the county; and, the other scene where Lincoln is telling the slightly off-color joke to a crowd about the man fighting the bear.
