I have seen the greatest ever acting performance I have seen in a film in my life.

[Norman Potting]

Ben Kingsley in Sexy Beast?

Peter Fonda and Alec Baldwin in "Thomas and the Magic Railroad".

Repetition : I have seen

 

[hans kraay fan club]

Roberto Benigni in Life Is Beautiful. Incredible.

 

[Taybha]

If he was that much of a actor he would only have 1 foot

Saying that i am quite looking forward to seeing it .

Lincoln , not the foot .

 

[Garage_Doors]

Bricktop in snatch was probably the best performance I have seen.

Found it compelling, witty, funny with a good use and range of the English language.

 

[Marxo]

Daniel Day-Lewis? Cobblers!

 

[Cheshire Cat]

I haven't seen Lincoln, but Daniel Day Lewis is also astonishing in"The Unbearable Likeness of Being" - a film that most children and keyboard warriors on here will hate and give it kev the teenager large, but which I think is amazing.

 

[MattBackHome]

I haven't seen it but can tell you right now it's shit. Bring on Jurassic Park 4.

 

[Weststander]

Daniel Day Lewis as Lincoln. The greatest ever acting performance I ever have seen in my life. A lesson in the art and craft of acting. Daniel Day Lewis WAS Lincoln. An extraordinary performance I was privileged to see.

As good as a Bale or Cozorla bit of acting?

 

[jimhigham]

Looking forward to seeing Lincoln on Monday night so will see how Mr Day-Lewis gets on.

Another good performance lately was Ewen McGregor's turn in The Impossible although probably more for a single moment rather than the whole film. The section where he was breaking down over the telephone was stunning.

 

[Lord Bracknell]

Showing my ignorance here - I honestly thought DDL was playing Lord Bracknell, not Abraham Lincoln!!!

We're often mistaken for each other.

 

[Don Quixote]

So biased. Do you ever look to any other director?

Roberto Benigni in Life Is Beautiful. Incredible.

Some of my favourite acting performances:

Javier Bardem in Skyfall
John Simm in pretty much anything he does, but mainly Doctor Who and Life on Mars
David Tennant in the last 3 episodes of Doctor Who, series 3
Colin Firth in The King's Speech
Heath Ledger in The Dark Knight
Johnny Depp in Pirates of the Caribbean
Tom Hanks in Forrest Gump

The book was very good but difficult to translate to the screen I thought. They had decent go though. Can't think of many actors who would have done a better job.

Facebook, yes. I am interested in anyone who has seen the film on their opinions as to his performance.

DDL is a fine actor, no question. I am looking forward to watching the film from a historical perspective as much as anything.

The only redeeming feature of the otherwise disjointed film

What, you mean Javier Bardem hamming it up as David Walliams?
