I thought that whispered "Davy Crockett" he gave was the epitome of that. It's torn between him mocking his own legend and how it's got him into this mess, and his reluctant acceptance that it's going to get him killed. But since he knows it can't go any other way, he embraces it, and got out in a way fitting the Legend, not the Man. Maybe he just never gave himself enough credit.

In the novelization of this movie, the translator was hoping Crockett would beg for his life. David thought to himself, at a brief moment, blamed the legend because it would've made him rich and famous, but all it did was got him killed. But, he remembered that play, "Lion of the west". David asked himself, "who are you really? David? Or Davy?" David knew he wasn't going to live, but decided to go out as "Davy Crockett" and told the translator that they should surrender. Santa Anna was relishing this. He was hoping David would beg for his life for his amusement and then had him shot. But after the translator told him that they should surrender, furious Santa Anna gestured his men to stab Davy. Right before 6 bayonets plunged into him, Davy quoted: "I'm a screamer. I got the roughest horse. Surest rifle. I can leap rivers in one jump. Tow a steam boat on my back. I'm a screamer..."

This film's depiction of Crockett was really elegant. Wanting the quiet life, thrust into a desperate situation and having to bear with it because of his reputation. Knowing that if he failed to live up to his own hype, he would be undermining the people who were looking to and drawing strength from his presence. When he looks around and see's the enemy wearing trophies they took from the Alamo, his hat - he realises everyone is expecting him to say something profound. Because he's Davy Fucking Crockett. In the film, it didn't matter whether he was the Real Deal or not. He did was was expected of him, despite his own misgivings. That's duty I guess.

I strongly think besieged soldiers, e.g., Crockett & Alamo defenders, all mentally prepared for JUST such an opportunity of "last words" as the foresighted hero did - and took it for all its worth. There's nothing new or spectacular about - "going down kickin'", not just to hit, if possible, but STILL strategically kill and wipe out the enemy at it's powerbase, in front of, and especially, here in front of ALL of his troops, GIVEN just such a golden opportunity. Crockett was as much as, (forgive me) bullfighting with Santa Anna as the bull, purposefully and wildly enraged to be distracted momentarily, off balance while struck, opportunistically by picadore strikes, humorously yet shockingly too unexpected here, protracting the affair, altogether. Santa Anna, as a leader, could have simply executed the man instantly, as a gesture of supreme sovereign rule too, of overwhelming (due and angry) power being able to just afford the mercy of oblivion to men (in Crokett's universally recognizably helpless position), just like ALL those watching, could, would soon be subject to at any time and were always in that same, same terrible position, as Crockett, then and there, all alone, and were always just like him now, when in combat and war anyway. Thanks to Crokett all present and soon ALL could judge Santa Anna's qualities now, by default, and did. Crokett exposed Santa Anna's relative weakness, revealed to be sadistic and cruel, not strong and especially extraordinary, ultimately, the same old fare, by luring him to self-indulging in comfort and obvious pleasure, standing in personally and arrogantly, making it an event, with Crockett. Crockett, true, steadfast, magnanimous, clever, funny, when funny is really appreciated by all, and rare as can be, shox and awes. Timing was everything then. Such a psychological victory here, by D. Crockett was BOTH a blockbuster AND a long-range, pin-point sniping bull's-eye. Crockett thus wins big time, in the end, with a little practical preparation, . . . He thus as much as engineered his own, inevitable anyway, good death as such. That forethought too may have been the reason EVERYBODY still "Remember(s, -ed) the Alamo" - just that - alone - could have been the very, singular catalyst itself for how everything happened after the Alamo fell.

We may never know how Crockett died, but I really do like how this movie portrays Crockett's death. In the scene, you could tell that Crockett knew that he was more than likely going to be killed anyway. And he knew that Santa Anna wanted him to beg for his life, but figured Santa Ana had no thought of sparing him, no matter what he might have said to try to convince him otherwise. Crockett decided not to give Santa Anna what he wanted. He decided to go out with dignity, and defiance. He went out like a man!

we do know there is evidence from Mexican soldiers that made it back to Mexico and knew how Crockett was captured for several days a long with Travis they were killed by Santa Ana. Some of the Mexican soldiers were trying to convince Santa Ana to release David Crockett but it was already too late for Crockett. They said how Crockett was a really nice guy and helped some of the Mexicans in the area with their English and food etc so many of the Mexicans in the area and soldiers tried to convince the assasin Santa Ana, Im Mexican however I can't stand that guy Santa Ana he deserved also to die in San Jacinto he was a disgrace to Mexico from what I have been reading.

My opinion why Crockett said "I'm a screamer" when executed: There are two types of big cats in the wild, growling cats, and screaming cats. Growling cats such as lions and tigers are found in Africa and Asia respectively. Screaming cats such as mountain lions, (also known as cougar's or puma's), and jaguars are found in the America's. Crockett was a legend in his own time, and was known as the 'lion of the west,' hence the line "I'm a screamer" when he was killed. For those who have been attacked by a mountain lion, and lived, would tell you that sound of a mountain lion screaming before or during an attack is a sound that they will never forget, and will make your skin crawl! Did Crockett die in this fashion? Was he executed or did he die in battle? Who knows! Time has erased the answers, but whichever way he died, Crockett is a Texas and American legend and hero!

The "I'm a screamer" line is a callback to earlier in the film, when Crockett attends a play portraying him as the wild, boasting, over the top, country adventurer of myth. A "screamer" was a loud, boastful, over the top, exaggerated, parody character. In the movie we see Crockett as a man haunted in a way by the myths about his life, always trying to get away from them, always having people expecting him to live up to the legends. In reality he is both a much more simple man in some ways, and a much more complex man at others. Instead of the swashbuckler myth of legend and fame, he actually has what would appear to be PTSD from fighting against Indians earlier in his life. At the end of the movie, when he has been captured, he sees a Mexican soldier wearing his decorated vest, and all the Mexicans are excited and thrilled to have captured the "Great Davy Crockett". He realizes even in death he is never going to be able to shake off the "Davy Crockett" myth and legend, so instead of begging for his life, he defiantly accepts the myths surrounding his name, and goes out as "a screamer."

It just goes to show you that freedom and sovereignty are values held by all people, insomuch that they would be willing to die in battle helping a neighbor achieve it.

He was tied up next to 6 other guys, in reality. This movie took alot of dramatic liberty with bending the truth. Still though, i like that they showed him dying by bayonette (which really happened), not firing squad. He went down cool and honorably by the accounts of many who watched it happen. It wouldn't be until Disney and John Wayne that people started clinging to the idea he died in the fighting. If you ask me, it robs Crockett of his dignity as a man to be still shrouded in legend (a legend he hated living up to) even after death.

It's hard for me to judge. In April of 2014 after the Ukrainian coup my brother, Oleg Tsarev, the Ukrainian Davy Crockett, was viciously attacked in Kiev, beaten, stripped naked and almost lynched. There was a point when the mob demanded that he get down on his knees and beg for forgiveness. Oleg said it wasn't gonna happen. But you gotta consider that my brother was just giving a speech- Davy was actually fighting all day. He was probably beyond exhausted. Or maybe he did secretly hope- maybe just for a moment- that the sight of a US Congressman on his knees would be enough for Santa Ana to spare his life. Maybe if there was a true moment of weakness- who the hell are we to judge?

At the end of the day, the Alamo isn't about America or Mexicans. All nations on earth that are lucky survive to become Empires and all Empires die. The importance of the Alamo is the same thing that is important about Thermopylae, the battle of Tours, the Battle of Stalingrad, the Battle of Lepanto or Siget in 1566. A few stood against many. A few were willing to die rather than submit. Courage in the face of certain death is a thing to be admired and respected once given over to legend.

I get that they were trying to depict a controversial version of Crockett’s death that was different from the previous popular version, but dang, if you were going that route, at least follow the account! If following De la Piña’s journal: Scene cuts to seven men bound on their knees. In the center, is Davy Crockett, battered, beaten, and swollen from the morning’s final stand, barely conscious. Santa Anna looks at him with contempt. Camera pans to other soldiers. Their expressions are one of awe, and respect. Castrillón steps forward and pleas for Crockett’s life, and bring up the bravery of these men. Santa Anna casts a look of disgust, waves indignantly for him to retire. He then orders the guard form rank. They form a file. He draws his sword and orders them to take aim, which they do. “Fuego!” He shouts, dropping his hand. The soldiers stand motionless, still aiming down their muskets. Now visibly angry, Santa Anna gets animated, repeating his order: “FUEGO!” They pause, remaining in their armed positions, then, they lower their muskets, coming to attention, Honor and reverence glowing from their faces towards these seven men. A now near manic Santa Anna turns around and cuts into the crowd of soldiers watching, and using his saber calls a group of staff officers forward. They exit the crowd and form up in front of the prisoners. Santa Anna orders them to “Cut them down”. The officers draw their swords, and slowly advance. The prisoners straighten themselves, fighting their fear and a peace falls upon them as each one accepts their fate. As the officers get close and raise their swords against the prisoners, the camera pans up towards the sky. A text reads: Before being executed, the prisoners were tortured for some time, before finally being cut down. Yet despite all this, they showed no fear, and no humiliation in front of their captors - De la Piña That would have been true to source material, dramatic, and be emotional. Not this “I’m a screamer” nonsense.

Phil Jansen There are two separate written accounts. The “De La Piña” Diary and the Dolson letter. The De La Piña Diary is actually a series of two separate diaries and multiple loose papers. One Diary, known as the rough draft, is 100% in his handwriting, been thoroughly tested, and examined. It also has no mention of the execution and no mention of Crockett anywhere. The controversial Crockett Page appears in the second diary, known as the final draft. It has handwriting of several individuals, none of which are De La Piña’s, and multiple water marks, and the Crocket Page is in a handwriting that is not found anywhere else in the whole diary. No surviving copy of the Dolson letter to Sam Huston exists. We only know it’s contents from Dolson’s recollection in an 1870s newspaper interview. We also have conflicting eye witness interview from survivors Mrs Dickinson, Joe (Travis’s slave), and Enrico Esparza. Fact is, it’s far from known, and scholars still debate the issue.

Susan Dickinson (One of the survivors) stated that she saw his body surrounded by a number of dead Mexican soldiers...so, who knows what actually happened...the fact is he died a hero regardless.

Just like Jesus, Davy was only seen pierced at his execution. In this scene, David remembers who he is, or has portrayed, "Davy Crockett", and laughs to himself. It is then that he decides that since he has played the part of Davy Crockett so well all his life (been on these walls of the Alamo all his life) that now sure heck isn't the time to stop or back down. In fact, that thought seems to fire him up inside to make him contemptible before Santana. "I wanna warn you all, I'm a screamer." Davy Crockett said to Jim Bowie while pent up at the Alamo: "If it were just me, simple David from Tennessee, I might drop over these walls one night and take my chances. But that 'Davy Crockett' feller, they're all watching him. He's been on these walls every day of his life." Jesus Christ may have thought to himself, or may have said to the two criminals crucified on either side of him: "If it were just me, simple Jesus the carpenter from Galilee, I might drop down from this cross and take my chances. But that 'Son of God' feller, they're all watching him. He's been on this cross every day of his life." AMEN P.S.
