Abe Lincoln in IllinoisBerkshire Theatre Group in StockbridgeWritten by Robert E. Sherwood, directed by David Auburn“I leave now with these new whiskers … of which I hope you approve.”The 1938 role of Abraham Lincoln in Robert E. Sherwood’s play “Abe Lincoln in Illinois” made Raymond Massey, a film character heavy, into a bonafide Broadway star. The next year, thanks to Sherwood’s insistence, the same role made him a true Hollywood star.

El film, al parecer inspirado en hechos reales, tiene un buen reparto –Fredric March, Adolphe Menjou, Gloria Grahame– y está rodado con un vigoroso ritmo aventurero, aunque no puede quitarse de encima un molesto halo panfletario. Karel Cernik es el jefe de un circo ambulante que ha representado funciones durante años por toda Europa.
