Great Moments With Mr. Lincoln




Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln was an attraction at the , featuring exhibits on the history of Disneyland. Disney says the Lincoln attraction will return after the 50th Anniversary Celebration is over, but some fans are skeptical.

The most recent version of the attraction featured a story as if the guest were a real American soldier in the American Civil War . The guest wears headphones and listens to a jarringly realistic Binaural Recording , where even the breath of a character whispering can be felt in their ear. When the soldier the guest is supposedly portraying is shot in the leg in battle, he/she "wakes up" in a war Hospital where President Abraham Lincoln walks in and talks to the injured soldiers, before inviting the guest to the Gettysburg Address speech. This film ends and the curtains are raised, and the guest sees an Audio-Animatronic Abraham Lincoln sitting in a chair with a piece of paper in his hand. Lincoln is standing in an outdoor setting reminiscent of the Gettysburg battlefield. Lincoln then stands up and recites his famous Gettysburg Address.
