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.

Chicago Reader
Sympathetic, sophisticated and, for those with a keen eye, echoed in the work of Hitchcock and Welles.

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

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

Rating: 1.5/4 --
Feels like a relic, a sad, weak swan song from one of cinema's most legendary filmmakers.

Description by OLDIES.com:
In a series of episodic vignettes, pioneer director D.W. Griffith (Birth of a Nation) explores the life and turbulent times of the 16th President of the United States. Historically accurate and to the point, the film explores the birth, loves and tragic presidency of Abe Lincoln. Credited with the skillful use of a moving camera, it was also Griffith's first non-silent film.
