"We here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain -- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."
-Abraham Lincoln
Over Thanksgiving break, I saw the movie Lincoln. It was super awesome. Even though it was history and I already knew how it was going to end, it was still really suspenseful. I found myself crossing my fingers that the 13th amendment was going to be passed, even though it already was. I was sitting there, really enjoying myself, then about halfway through the movie I realize: oh crap, he's gonna die! Like I said, it was so good I almost forgot that all this had already happened. At the end, he was walking down the hallway and out the door to go to the theater, and I kept hoping that it would end before he died, and... well, I don't think it's necessary to say SPOILER ALERT, but I guess I just did anyway, but at the end he does die. By that time I was in a total movie coma, because the movie was, like, 3 hours long, not to mention how much I had to go to the bathroom because of the tub of Coke they gave me when I ordered a small. Despite that I still couldn't tear myself from the screen to use the bathroom until the movie was over, that's how good it was. All in all, it was a great movie and you should all see it too!

My parents saw it and my dad thought it was sad. He does this every time, he reads a book about Lincoln and he dies, he sees the movie and he dies I don't understand why he gets so sad because he knows its going to happen
