Another interesting compare/contrast for H8 would be with Carpenter's The Thing, especially the similar/different situations at the end of the two films: distrust for MacReady/Childs vs trust for Warren/Mannix.

One aspect of the Lincoln letter that is not touched upon here is that
when Goggins asks to read it in the end, and Jackson lets him, it's only

letter is just as, if not more…
