April 14, 1865. As four years of civil war draw to a cIose, our country again faces unforgettable tragedy: the assassination of the President. Starring Lance Henriksen as the Great Emancipator and Rob Morrow as assassin John WiIkes Booth, this riveting re-creation of The Day LincoIn Was Shot (from Jim Bishop's landmark book) is a thrilIing and detaiIed chronicIe of the plot, murder and manhunt that changed America forever. To avenge what he caIled the Confederacy's "nobIe cause," Booth conspires with his motIey folIowers, rages and boasts, and aspires to a pIace in history as a Great Man. The weary LincoIn, longing for a just peace, meets with his Cabinet, steaIs precious time with his famiIy and dream - IiteralIy - of the death of a President. Minute by minute, kilIer and victim edge closer to the bury of gunfire at Ford's theatre that stopped Lincoln's heart - and shattered the country's soul. |
