From the American Experience documentary: Abraham and Mary Lincoln. Jeff Daniels voice over historical photo montage of Lincoln's speech which forms the bookend to Jefferson's Declaration of Independence.
Please forgive my rudeness, however it is not Jeff Daniels speaking as Lincoln, it was David Morse for "Abraham and Mary Lincoln: A House Divided" on PBS.
They say Lincoln had a sort of odd sounding voice, understated by comparison to his words. Jeff Daniels does a very good job of capturing that. This is the best recreation of that great moment I've heard. Excellent post.
Thank you for the correction.
