模仿文本：  Spielberg's film is based on Doris Kearns Goodwin's best-selling book Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln and in particular his struggle in 1865 to get the 13th Amendment¹ to the Constitution through Congress, the amendment that outlaws² slavery, the great achievement of Lincoln's second term in office. The film was released in America a couple of days after the election that returned President Obama for a second term. It arrives here in Britain in the week that he was sworn in for that term on Lincoln's own bible.

 

译文： 这部电影根据桃莉丝·基恩斯·古德温的畅销书《对手团队：政治天才林肯》改编，以1865年为背景展开。在这一年，林肯排除万难，终于使国会通过了宪法修正案第13条，废除了奴隶制，这是他在第二个任期取得的巨大成就。电影在美国上映的前两天，奥巴马总统赢得了大选。在英国上映的同一周，奥巴马总统手按圣经宣誓就职，其中一本正是林肯使用过的。
