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

It is quite a worthy pictorial offering with a genuinely fine and inspiring performance by Walter Huston in the role of the martyred President.

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

Abraham Lincoln is a startlingly superlative accomplishment.

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

An archaic biopic.

Recommended solely for Walter Huston's performance.

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.
August 19, 2013
Sympathetic, sophisticated and, for those with a keen eye, echoed in the work of Hitchcock and Welles.
