We know what Lincoln was like because we have tons of his personal letters and such, as well as those of his closest advisors. There was a record before videotape, you know.


I mean stuff like his mannerisms, his walk, his voice, etc. I know you can tell what kind of person he was by letters and such, but it just seems it'd be hard to tell the whole story with that.

All of which have been described in great detail by people who lived at the time of his presidency. Obviously we'll never know exactly how he sounded, but we have good enough descriptions to give Day-Lewis a lot to go on.
