About Young Mr. Lincoln
Few American historical figures are as revered as Abraham Lincoln, and few director-star collaborations embody classic Hollywood cinema as beautifully as the one between John Ford and Henry Fonda. This film, their first together, was Ford's equally poetic and significant follow-up to the groundbreaking western STAGECOACH, and in it Fonda gives one of the finest performances of his career, as the young president-to-be, a novice lawyer struggling with an incendiary murder case. Photographed in gorgeous black and white by Ford's frequent collaborator Bert Glennon, YOUNG MR. LINCOLN is a compassionate and assured work and an indelible piece of Americana. TWO-DVD SPECIAL EDITION FEATURES - New 4K digital restoration - New audio commentary featuring film scholar Joseph McBride (SEARCHING FOR JOHN FORD: A LIFE) - OMNIBUS: 'JOHN FORD', part one: filmmaker Lindsay Anderson s profile of the life and work of director John Ford before World War II - Talk show appearance by actor Henry Fonda from 1975 - Audio interviews from the seventies with Ford and Fonda, conducted by the director's grandson Dan Ford - Academy Award radio dramatization of the film - PLUS: An essay by critic Geoffrey O'Brien and an homage to Ford by filmmaker Sergei Eisenstein
