Wonder how Redford will try to link Lincoln's assassination to one of Bush's ancestors.

This is weill known - if you have read US history.

I’m sure Mr. Redford will find some way to blame the government for Mr. Lincoln’s demise.

[randog]

LOL!!

I’m sure he will make heroes out of them, like he did the moral and noble Palestinian Terrorists, depicting their loving family life.

I wonder if He'll make the point that the First Republican President was assassinated by Democrats?

If not anything else, the scenery should be great. The movie was filmed in Savannah, GA.

NO , it will be the evil Conservatives / right wingers /and those Christians !

[timeflies]

LOL !!!

Many peeps believe that Lincoln was murdered via a single gunman acting alone. When I brought up the conspiracy part that Redford is delving into, I was mocked by “elites.” The Kennedy assassination was also a conspiracy with the mafia/KKK/Milteer [extremist with KKK links]involved.

[Never on my watch]

I am pretty sure Dick Cheney was involved. Dr. Mudd worked for Haliburtan.

Whatever the case, Hollywood cannot let an actor take the blame.

I am still in my ‘don't reinforce Liberals’ regimen.

My money stays in my pocket. Mr. Redford can look elsewhere for his livelihood.

Redford says “it’s the story nobody knows about”.

It was fully covered, as I recall, in “The Day Lincoln Was Shot”, a popular book published back in the 1960’s.

LOL - the news article comments are great and must have been written by Freepers, eg - “yup. Bush killed Lincoln. And he was behind the firing on Ft. Sumter. And he assassinated the Archduke Ferdinand, too ...”

[Tennessee Nana]

Redford is a member of SAG

Wouldnt Booth also have been ???

Oh noez..

Those evil actors...

[Roccus]

Forget REDford's movie, just read Jim Bishop's "The Day Lincoln Was Shot." I read it more than 50 years ago.

[Sans-Culotte]

It's probably a remake of THE LINCOLN CONSPIRACY.

Oh, better yet!! Bush and Cheney called Elvis, who's been hiding out on Jupiter. Halliburton -- that e-e-e-evil company who made that hurricane machine which caused Katrina to attack New Orleans because Bush hates black people -- paid Elvis to fly his spacecraft and pick up Bush and Cheney. They traveled through a time portal to bribe Booth to kill Lincoln. On the way back to 1865, they made a stop in Dallas in 1963 to kill JFK. That's why we have all those strange parallels between the two assassinations, you know. And.. and.. oh, yeah! They blew up the twin towers on 9-11, too!!
