The Alamo

The alamo is attacked on the 13th morning. Travis takes a bullet to the head. Bowie is stabbed y bayoneters. Everyone is killed. Crockett is executed in the morning by soldiers. He's a screamer. Houston flees from Santa Anna, but runs into him. Houston attacks and wins. The last imagine we see, is Crockett's spirt playing his violin at the Alamo.

Continuity mistake: In the shot where Travis hands Seguin the third message to Houston the off-center seal is closer to Travis. As Seguin takes it the seal is closer to him. (00:56:15)

Trivia: The director filmed five different deaths of Crockett for the film. The one used is based on a letter from a Mexican officer found in Texas in 1935 and has been called a fake by histories of The Alamo.

Question: Did the real battle for the Alamo happen during the day or during the night?

Answer: The siege of the Alamo lasted thirteen days, so events would happen both day and night. The actual final assault began at around 5am, and took no more than ninety minutes - it was over by sunrise.
