"The Day Lincoln Was Shot" was a 1956 American television play about the assassination of Abraham Lincoln.

Reception

Variety called it "a noble effort. But it didn’t quite come off. Much of it, particularly the early half, was slow and ponderous; over most of the 90-minute course it overtalked itself."[1]
