Lincoln

The Hollywood Reporter’s film blog passes along an insider report that Spielberg’s projected Lincoln movie is not a go for filming and is now “up in the air.” Looks like John Williams’ dance card for late ‘06 is a bit freer than most people have anticipated…

When/if this film ever does get completed, much as I enjoy Williams’ score for The Patriot, I expect… no, demand… that a score for Lincoln not sound anything like Copland — or worse, the accompaniment to Disneyland’s animatronic show.
