Strange Glory (1938)

어린 시절, 괴한에 의해 어머니를 잃은 링컨(벤자민 워커)은 복수에 나서지만 오히려 생명을 위협 받는데… 위기의 순간 헨리(도미닉 쿠퍼)를 만나 목숨을 구한 링컨은 그를 통해 이 세상에 뱀파이어가 존재하고 있음을 알게 되고, 혹독한 트레이닝을 견디고 뱀파이어 헌터로 거듭난다. 정체를 숨긴 채 은밀히 미션을 수행해 오던 어느 날, 링컨은 뱀파이어 조직의 거대한 실체와 그들의 음모를 감지하게 되는데… 상상을 초월하는 뱀파이어와의 전쟁이 시작된다!

미연방 역사상 가장 아픈 상처로 기억될 남북전쟁. 그 사이에 노예제도가 있었다. 모든 인간은 자유로워야 한다고 믿는 링컨은 전쟁이 끝나는 순간 노예제 폐지 역시 물거품이 될 것이라 확신하고 전쟁 종결 이전에 헌법 13조 수정안을 통과시키려 한다. 하지만 수정안 통과까지 20표만을 남겨놓은 상황에서 남부군으로부터 평화제의가 들어온다. 전장에서 흘리게 될 수많은 젊은 장병들의 목숨, 그리고 앞으로 태어날 모든 인류의 자유. 그 무엇도 포기할 수 없는 링컨에게 위대한 결단의 순간만이 남아 있는데…

세계 패션 산업이 날로 번창하던 어느 날, 말레이시아 수상이 미성년자의 노동 착취를 뿌리 뽑겠다고 천명하자 패션계는 발칵 뒤집어진다. 자사 물건을 대부분 임금이 산 외국에서 제작해 온 디자이너와 패션계의 거물들은 이제껏 그래왔듯이 방해인물을 제거하기로 합의한다. 필요한 것은 이들의 도구가 되어줄 멍청이뿐이었다.

1865년 4월 13일 저녁, 남부군의 총사령관 로버트 리 장군이 버지니아의 애퍼매톡스에서 항복한 다음 날. 인기 배우이자 남부 연합의 열혈당원인 존 윌크스 부스와 공모자들의 음모가 시작된다. 그들이 링컨을 암살하는 이유는 링컨이 노예제를 비롯한 남부의 생활 양식을 부정하는 폭군이라고 생각했기 때문. 링컨 대통령을 암살하는 것은 음모의 시작일 뿐, 그들의 최종 목표는 남부 연합의 재건이다. (neukim 님 제공)

Parallels are drawn between Abraham Lincoln's presidency and the presidency of Donald Trump. Not since 1860 have the Democrats so fanatically refused to accept the result of a free election.

Abe Lincoln in Illinois is a 1940 biographical film which tells the story of the life of Abraham Lincoln from his departure from Kentucky until his election as President of the United States.

As a general, he had fought to preserve the Union. As president, he helped to oversee the transformation from union to nation. As a former president, he was the embodiment of the very idea of national union, and of America's entry onto the world stage. As a dying general, he was the symbol of the nation's greatest and most traumatic war. The story of Ulysses S. Grant's life, from his first days on the Ohio frontier to his last days out-writing death in the Adirondacks, is an endlessly fascinating one. Few public figures have ever held a such a firm grip on the American popular imagination. Grant was a man whose rise from obscurity made him a hero to millions who could see themselves in him. An ordinary man who faced and met extraordinary challenges, his successes and failures seemed to encapsulate the national character. He was so popular with the American public that, despite his two scandal-ridden terms as president, he was nearly nominated to run for a third term.
