"Daniel Day-Lewis has said that he would not want to make back-to-back movies. The actor, who is tipped to win his third Oscar for his turn in Lincoln, told The Sun that he is thankful he does not need to work continuously and can take time between projects.  &amp;quot;Some actors work back to back because they have to, and I completely respect that. If financially I found my family needed me to do that then I would find some way of doing it,&amp;quot; the 55-year-old said. &amp;quot;Thanks be to God I haven&amp;#039;t been put in that position. &amp;quot;I may be very uneasy - truth is I&amp;#039;d probably sooner go and try and find work in the construction crew than make films back to back. &amp;quot;The reason is it would completely destroy my enthusiasm for that work.&amp;quot; Speaking about his role in Lincoln, Day-Lewis said that he valued the time he was given by director Steven Spielberg to develop his character.  He explained: &amp;quot;Aloneness was one of the gifts that Steven allowed me. &amp;quot;He recognised in me the need to feel that aloneness - that he allowed me that space to feel that aloneness. Being the leader of the free world during a civil war is unimaginably lonely so my job was to imagine that.&amp;quot; Lincoln, which was released in UK cinemas yesterday (January 25), is nominated for 12 Academy Awards, including &amp;#039;Best Picture&amp;#039;, &amp;#039;Best Actor&amp;#039; and &amp;#039;Best Director&amp;#039;.
