My husband and I headed off to the movie theatre this past weekend and saw the movie Lincoln. It was something my husband wanted to see. I thought I'd give it a go. Of course the movie had an amazing actors and actresses in it.
We arrived at the movie theatre, got the tickets and I asked for the closed caption box because it said the move was Closed Caption from the website. The person at the register didn't know if the movie was closed caption or not, so he asked his fellow co worker and that person didn't know either but managed to get the closed caption box. At this point I was like well either the movie is or isn't captioned.
My husband(M) got some popcorn and something to drink as I got the closed caption box. So off to the theatre we went! We must have gone through tons of previews. It seemed like more previews are out there now than before. Wow. Once the movie started, it was closed captioned! Yay for me! My husband and I could enjoy the movie together.
It was quite fascinating for me watch. I personally think this movie should be shown in history classes to teach us how it worked back then. It made sense to me how it all went down with Lincoln and the vote. I'm not giving the whole plot of the movie. You got to go see it.
I loved Sally Field and her sharp tongue in this movie. Tommy Lee Jones was amazing! He had a lot of character to him and there was something surprising in the film that you see at the end about his character. Of course the man who plays Lincoln Daniel Day-Lewis is amazing as always. I always liked him in The Last of the Mohicans. Then there's Joseph-Gordon Levitt who plays Lincoln's son and just does an excellent job as well.
It was quite an adventure to watch this movie and to see how it goes. It was a little slow but fascinating! As the movie was over, I returned the caption box as another worker there at the theatre didn't know what it was. I explained it to him and he asked if the movie was good. I told him yes. I softly chuckled as we left the theatre thinking that if you work at a movie theatre, you should be aware of everything that's in it. Educate yourself with all the aspects of it and know whether or not the movies have closed caption or not. It's up on the website..technology these days!
Thumbs up for this movie..go see if it you like historical movies!!
