In this dramatized account of his early law career in Illinois, Abraham Lincoln is born into a modest log cabin, where he is encouraged by his first love, Ann Rutledge, to pursue law. Following her tragic death, Lincoln establishes a law practice in Springfield, where he meets a young Mary Todd. Lincoln's law skills are put to the test when he takes on the difficult task of defending two brothers who have been accused of murder.

watched this in a film class... i dont really care for old movies, and even the story in this one was uninteresting and unoriginal (for a viewer of the 21st century ofc im sure it had its wonders back when it came out). I mean, Elle Woods literally did this same thing in Legally Blonde. 7/10
