Henry Fonda takes the title role in John Ford's fanciful yet inspiring screen treatment of the Great Emancipator's early life. Having just hung his shingle in Springfield, Illinois, the inexperienced backwoods lawyer must rely on little more than faith in common sense when he opts to defend two settler siblings charged with murder after a fateful brawl. Wonderful slice of pioneer Americana co-stars Alice Brady, Marjorie Weaver, Donald Meek, and Ward Bond. 100 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital mono; Subtitles: English (SDH); audio commentary; featurettes; interviews; radio play. Two-disc set.
