I performed as a stuntman in this film. Spent 5 weeks in a tent on the old Bracketville set. Played one of Ray Hrbeck's "good Mexican Soldado's" Also played a Texian in a few scenes. I was the jig dancer that performed with the little girl and handed her off to Davy Crockett.

Oh wow! That’s amazing! My father was in this movie as well. He played a Mexican soldier and would always point out the scenes he appeared in. He sadly passed as well this past December. In the battle, you can see him at 4:35. He’s the Mexican soldier yelling, “a la derecha, andale!” Which means, “to the right, go! If your father is in the battle scene, let me know where in the battle he can be seen, I’d like to see it. My deepest condolences for you and your family.

This movie “The Price of Freedom”, is by far the best rendering of the battle of the Alamo! Produced in 1987 . Filmed at the Alamo Village at Brackettville Texas, at the site where in 1960 John Wayne had the set built for his great movie This great to be able to see this movie now on KZfaq. I have seen this movie 8-15 times in San Antonio, Texas at the IMAX built for this movie . I shall view it again on March 6,2023. I will remember the Alamo!

That would have added more to why they were fighting, but they go back to Sam. A wast of a good Opportunity to set a better picture and make a better movie.

If there was a video of what really happened at the Alamo, Hollywood would still make a mockery of it simply because it likely wouldn't produce much interest. People go to the movies primarily to be entertained. In the case of historical events, they want to watch action that excites their senses or their emotions, or both. Only way to do that to a great degree is to fudge a little on the facts.

One thing to remember is that the last fight took around 90 minutes for the Mexicans to overcome the defenders. The Mexicans had around a 10-1 advantage (I.E. around 1,800 to 183) during that final assault but it still took them 90 Minutes to finish off the Texans. There are reports of around 5-7 Texans who were executed after the battle. Six weeks later most of these victoroius Mexicans would be killed or wounded at the Battle of San Jacinto but unlike Santa Anna, Sam Houston let the survivors return to Mexico but he also let the Mexican deal lie were they had fallen.

I read the there were about 25 tejanos that were part of the Alamo Garrison with the fighting was all over nine Tejanos were among the casualties. The other 16? When the Siege started there were 25 inside the Alamo . When the fighting was over there was 9 Tejanos among the casualties. Col. Travis Sent out a number of messagers the first few days, sometimes three, four or five. Col. Travis took advantage of the Tejanos, they could slip through the Mexican lines far easier. They were Mexicans, they could speak Spanish more Fluently and the white messengers could so they could slip through the lines very easy. That last two messengers were both Tejanos. After they delivered their messages, they wanted to return to the Alamo, General Sam Houston want to keep them with him. His plans were changing, Santa Anna’s troops were not all there yet. Right now he needed an army. Houston was getting volunteers but they needed to be trained. The Tejanos were doing their part to fight for freedo.

No doubt a horrific battle as prisoners were not taken. Defenders in the area of 200 trying to defend a large wide position against an attacking force in the early dawn of more than 2,000 mexican regulars crack troops. The main problem for the alamo defense was the wide area of defense. There simply was not enough men to defend the area. A smaller area might have been easier interestingly. A good case in point is the defense Roarks drift by the british against a much larger Zulu force. Of course in their advantage was their british breech loaders rifles.

Nicely done, although I think it took three charges by Santa Anna's forces to break the Alamo defenders. The Mexicans were charging a fortified strong point frontally--not a very good idea. They were from an agricultural society, and the were using smooth bore Brown Bess muskets against people from a hunting society with rifles. Then too, Santa Anna was generous with the lives of his troops, and medical attention for their wounded was poor. The two best traditional studies I know of are by Lon Tinkle and John Myers Myers, if you want to read up on it. The de la Pena diary stirred things up by saying Crockett was captured alive--although he does not say anything derogatory about Crockett--quite the opposite. Myers' account says this was a made up story by a kid to entertain tourists. We'll never know all the details for sure. Accounts are contradictory and uneven. It was democracy vs. dictatorship, however, and if you'd vote for Santa Anna, you'd vote for anybody.

The alamo defenders should have went to Goliad more combined force would've held longer, in my opinion the alamo defenders were lied to why else would they have stayed . It made no sense for the alamo to be defended when goliad was behind them

It is a fairly well done scene, although with certain historical errors, Travis, for example, died in the initial moments of the assault due to a bullet he received in the forehead. They exaggerate the number of Mexican losses too much, there seems to be hundreds of deaths, the reality is that the most realistic and modern estimates show casualty figures for the Mexican army that leave them at 60-80 dead and twice as many wounded, without mentioning that the compañero Who says that the battle lasted 90 minutes is wrong, the massacre, because it was a massacre that lasted just over 25 minutes, including the search for the wounded and subsequent executions. Sadly, the defenders of the Alamo did not inflict the casualties or damage on Santa Anna that the Americans like to believe.

According to Stephen Hardin's "Texian Iliad", the Alamo garrison was alerted to the Mexicans' presence when one of the soldiers in the assault columns shouted, "¡Viva Santa Anna!" and hundreds of other Mexicans soldiers repeated the cry. Santa Anna was incensed because he believed the shouting would alert the Texans, which it did. (Close to what the movie shows, but not quite.) So the Texans the chance to inflict heavy casualties on the Mexican columns before they made their way into the Alamo. Stephen Hardin believes as many as six hundred Mexican soldiers were killed or wounded in the battle, "one third of the assault force, which had been composed of Santa Anna's best battalions." A survivor said, "With another such victory, we will all go to the devil."

@@mercedesgonzalez1658 No doubt they received the data from someone that day while they were still there. But it's credible simply because it was given on the day of the battle, and why would the Texan's Mexican allies said that in the first place? I researched their Texan army records, and they were still a part of the Texan army until 1839 - both loyal to the new nation of Texas. As for "living witnesses" there were plenty, members of the Mexican army who took part in the battle who later gave their accounts. Plus there were 18 civilian survivors too.

The Alamo, when Texans and Tejanos fought Mexico to have the freedom to keep slaves. Santa Ana was there to enforce the abolition of slavery in Mexico’s Northern state of Texas. Only one Tejano signer on the document for the Constitution of the Republic of Texas, which protected the rights to keep slaves, and prohibited Indians and Africans from living freely in the country or from becoming citizens, as neither owner or the Texas Congress would allow emancipation of slaves. Nor could the descendants of Africans or Indians become citizens.

@@roberdink Really none, however, certain portions of the battle scenes in Alamo 2004 were on the mark, but not all. The lousiest scene was of Crockett dying that way, no Mexican witness describes that. Crockett was found in back of the Long Barrack and brought to Santa Anna as he was making a victory speech. Witnesses state that he and several others were killed within moments by swords and bayonets. Remember, of the 253 Alamo defenders, at least 125 (est.) jumped from the east walls and died under the lancers of General Sesma's cavalrymen. The battle THERE was just as intense as the Alamo defenders sought to fight to survive, it must have been a desperate death struggle outside those Alamo walls.
