I'm in my mid sixties and remember the first time the Alamo was on tv, it was in black and white I was so excited ( big John Wayne fan) the critics didn't really like it. I loved it, pure john Wayne, loved the USA, to me the film and the absolutely gorgeous haunting music was spell binding.I still get a tear in my eyes even to this day. When my two daughters and my grandkids are with me watching it I always hold a pillow up to hide the tears. What's up grandad they say, it's OK kids I've just got something in my eye.like my kids they know. Bless um!!!!!!!!!!

The glorious history of the Alamo was written in the blood of the 186 (+or-) who died defending the Alamo and Texas! As a native of San Antonio, I've visited the Alamo many times and visited John Wayne's movie set in Brackettville twice. I also took our kids to see it before it was closed so they could appreciate the amount of space 186 men had to defend. Long live Texas; Long may the heroes of the Alamo be honored! The Alamo fell 6 March, 1836. My uncle was killed on Luzon in the Philippines on the same date in 1945. Two very good reasons for me to honor that date!

My mother took me to see this as a child. I'd never seen a movie with battle scenes like this before. The Music: "The Green Leaves of Summer" - yeah, I also like the Kenny Ball and His Jazzmen version too. But the Spanish style arrangements are the most incredibly haunting in my mind (I have Spanish family and hear this sort of stuff in street festivals etc regularly). There is a similar feeling about another movie scene (Rio Bravo I believe) - it lifts the hairs on your neck. Ok, inaccurate history? yes, dated? yes, Wayne's finest performance? - no (The Searchers for me on that one), but a simply wonderful childhood memory - YES!! Wayne, Widmark, and a sadly short lived (aged 45) Lawrence Harvey as William B. Travis.

@@patdoyle3686 Wayne received one of his 2 Best Actor Oscar nominations for Sands Of Iwo Jima. The Searchers is regarded as one of, if not the best western ever made. Red River was a tour de force, with an outstanding supporting cast. We all have our favorites, but I don't regard Stagecoach as anything more than John Wayne's second big break, his first being The Big Trail in 1930, which was basically a dud and caused Wayne to toil in B movies for almost the next 10 years. The supporting cast helped carry Stagecoach. Rio Bravo is one of my favorite movies, everything in it works. Was remade twice, as Rio Lobo and El Dorado. The Quiet Man was entertaining, with all of John Ford's stock players providing supporting roles. Victor McLaglen was one of my favorite actors. A boxer in his early years, he was named heavyweight champion of the British Army in 1918. In reality, he could have most likely wiped the floor with Wayne. Wayne would have been more highly regarded if he had actually served in the Armed Forces instead of playing military roles in the movies.

Tennessee, in the now-defunct state of Franklin. Of course both had adventurous lives and became the stuff of legends.

I know the soundtrack well and some of the pieces are a little different here somehow. The “13 days of glory” choral is much different. The two speeches of Davy Crockett are omitted, one on “Republic”. The Green Leaves of Summer and The Ballad of the Alamo are not included but were not in the movie though. ....I wrote my Ninth grade English paper on The Fight for Texas and the Alamo which earned praise from the teacher who read sections of it aloud he thought it so good. I carried the Texas fighting spirt with me through the dark days in Vietnam.

One does not have to be a Texan to admire the valour of people fighting for their liberty and against discrimination by an overbearing administration of a distinct ethnic majority community and fighting a battle whose end was a foregone conclusion to both sides ab initio. It is a pity that in the anti-Vietnam protests of idealistic American youth, the idealism of the frontiersmen of the Alamo who laid down their lives was forgotten with consequent box office disaster for John Wayne's Alamo. Dimitri Tiomkin's epic composition of the Alamo theme based on the old Green Sleeves folk tune captures the heroism of the battle in a way that the more recent film on the same legend though possibly more realistic fails to do justice. As a freedom-lover, I from India would join the Texans in saying, "Remember the Alamo".

@@crimsonwolf9099 If you call the simple English speaking settlers fighting the Mexican army for their freedom as stealing a piece of Mexico, one could say the same about the Spaniards taking the land of the Indians of Mexico and large part of the American Southwest including Texas. Compared to American invasion and takeover of California by Fremont, the fight for the Alamo was indeed a fight for freedom from oppressive Spanish rule. As for the leaders like Houston and Austin fighting the Mexican army, one can say that they were slave owners who came to Texas to carve out their own empires but as for the brave leaders of the Alamo battle, Davy Crocket, Jim Bowie and Bill Travis, one can only bow in admiration at their fight unto death despite their knowledge about their own certain death at the hands of Santa Anna.

I think the film has become a classic just like the man who shot liberty valance when first came out was passed by but has become a cult classic along with the seachers funny how time changes how films are judged.

Yes it does all of John Ford John Wayne westerns are classics and I never saw the seachers look better than on bluray too bad Mr. Ford and Wayne aren't with us to see how good it looks.

Such a tragedy that this film is virtually "lost", with the original elements being so deteriorated.

I grew up on this. We all rooted for the texicans. The mood of the movie ranges from comic and cheerful to reverent and religious. Wonderful characters, good performances. Sad to see the boys lose, but the movie doesn't dwell on that. It is a celebration of their lives, not a complaint on their deaths. Kudos to Duke, who redeemed himself after that awful conqeror.

1960: "Green Leaves of Summer" was a big hit single on its own; Tiomkin used a different lyricist, Paul Francis Webster, rather than his regular Ned Washington. No, this one did not do well at the box office, rare for Wayne, but in his defense, he was beginning to have health problems that would lead to his losing a lung to cancer not long after. Wayne learned the need for great music from John Ford.

El Álamo. La historia la escriben los que ganan la guerra. La épica es el género en que Hollywood hace ese trabajo. A los 15 años que ví el film (hoy tengo 70), me quedó la emoción de la epopeya filmada. Tuvieron q pasar décadas para entender la historia en su sentido amplio. Sólo quedó esa bella canción ("Las verdes hojas del verano") como eco en la memoria inocente y que hoy suena con todo su engañoso encanto.

Hi Otohira, I know the timeless feeling of which you speak. My parents took our family through Texas back in 1961. I also had a great, great grandfather who fought in the American Civil War and was mustered out of the service in Corpus Christie, Texas at the end of this conflict. こんにちは、乙平、あなたが話す時を超えた気持ちを知っています。私の両親は1961年にテキサス州に家族を連れて行きました。また、アメリカ内戦で戦った偉大なgreat祖父もいました。 Kon'nichiwa, otsu hira, anata ga hanasu toki o koeta kimochi o shitte imasu. Watashi no ryōshin wa 1961-nen ni Tekisasu-shū ni kazoku o tsurete ikimashita. Mata, Amerika naisen de tatakatta idaina great sofu mo imashita
