This is what we need said now. I get so excited and patriotic every time I hear John Wayne say the line “Republic is one of those words that makes me tight in the throat. Same tightness a man gets when his baby takes his first step or his first baby shaves and makes his first sound like a man. Some words can give you a feeling that will make your heart warm. Republic is one of those words.”

Thank You, The Shadow for Down Loading that Great Clip. In My POV that segment of the Film 📽️🎥 The Alamo. Puts everything in it's Proper place & just Clarifies the Entire War. Looking Back now Over the previous Sixty Year's. Man what a President? Mr Wayne would have Made. And at the Time they Elected His fellow Former Actor Mr Ronald Reagan, Who did a Mighty Fine Job, for the Two Term's He was in for. The reasons He didn't Run for Office were Very well Published & Spoken of at the Time so no more will be Said of it. In Closing He was a Great American, Patriot Who always Said what needed to be Said or He'd Try & Help too get it Done 👍✅👍. Thank You Again, The Shadow for Sharing.

God! What a Great Man.. John Wayne.

Gotta love John Wayne. He always played the outdoors, rugged, rough riding cowboy that looked like he came out of a Hollywood salon in every scene! LOL Only if Sergio Leone directed these films.

I'm from San Antonio, my cousin fought and died in the Alamo. Now I live just a few miles west of Davy Crockett's Tavern.

Really don't think you could find two actors more different than Wayne and Harvey in terms of up bring and training yet they played off each other very well in this film, shame they never worked together again and even more of a shame that despite being younger by almost 20 years Laurence Harvey would pass away 6 years before John Wayne

His Republic speech brings a tear. Great Scene!

"REMEMBER THE ALAMO"!

My favorite scene from my favorite John Wayne movie.

The importance of defending freedom and liberty from tyrannical governments that was discussed in this video is more relevant now than it's ever been.

Brilliant speech from the Duke! He is what America stands for, or at least should. Legend

Theres another scene where Crockett is speaking with Jim Bowie. And he's telling Crockett about the Mexican people and about his Mexican wife. Very heartwarming scene. Shows the softer more human side of historical figures suck as Crockett and Bowie. Whether they were actually said in real life well..... we'll never know

Crockett's image of a rugged Mountain Man and Indian fighter, though he did serve in the Creek war of 1812, and was a well-regarded hunter, was not the image he wanted people to have of him. He wanted be seen as a man of high standing, and civilized society. He also was not a man who enjoyed the carnage of the battlefield, it was appalling to him. He was proud of his service, though. He had a down-home charm that endeared him to many. And had earnest intentions to do the right thing, to make things better, and stood by his beliefs, but just like it is now, he was living in a world who's first priority is self-interest, and who gladly discarded him after it felt his use to them was at an end.

I went to the premier showing of this at the Paramount Theater in Austin, Tx. During one of the fight scenes with the Mexican cavalry jumping over a barricade there was suddenly a loud shout "FANNIN IS COMING, FANNIN IS COMING" The whole theater, full of Texas University students errupted in screams and shouts. Way up at the top of the screen could be seen a yellow school bus moving from right to left. That was definitely the high point of the evening,

Ok never ask me to play tag with him. Playing tag with him seems to 🤕..... 😂

One of my very favourite John Wayne scenes.

This is the best of All The Alamo movie's, John Wayne "is still" the best actor & American ! I don't care if you don't agree.

Thanks for posting this !

A SOOOOOOOOO GREAT MOVIE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!🏆🥇

Harvey was Lithuanian, moved to South Africa, then on to the UK. Ended up an alcoholic, dead at 45.

4:55 Republic..I like the sound of the word.

A very enjoyable film on any count...

Great words... Thanks, Duke.

Thank You for sharing this sceen from the movie. It's one of my favorites, I know it is Hollywood style but I love the message. And God Bless it!

Remember the Alamo and this is the best definition of Republic that has ever been stated. These are the times that try men's souls. Since the U.S. Supreme Court denies/ the Rule of Law and the Constitution. I'm ready to make a stand.

To John Wayne! 🥃

Russians: We have a slapping tournament. What do you Americans have? Americans: Well .... 2:30

I'd like to see John Wayne take on the cancel culture of today, just like he always did !

John Wayne made a horrible Davy Crockett but by that time, he had earned the right to do what he wanted. Like Chaplin, he was all about the entertainment.

A Hollywood film that's historically inaccurate? Imagine THAT!

"Well, they seem to have accomplished that."

WHO ELSE WAS MORE AMERICAN THEN THE DUKE, HE GAVE US MORE THEN ALOT OF OTHERS. A TRUE AMERICAN

A terrific movie about the Alamo. Historically correct? Of Course not this was entertainment, colourful and used real men as the actors not "Hollywood Boys". Wayne's directing of the movie was sloppy at times and continuity was not one of his strong points as Richard Widmark complained about. In this scene Travis says he doesn't drink ever. Yet earlier in the movie he shares a tipple with his Captain in his room. That should not have been missed. For me this is the most enjoyable version of the Alamo movies

Johnus Waynous!!!!!! The Dukous!!!!! I LOVE HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Although I enjoy this film greatly Nate A. was correct in what he said. The Alamo is not a very historically accurate film, it does however, give a depiction of the mindset of the men that defended the Alamo. I would recommend reading Three Roads to the Alamo.

L entretien entre Dany Crockett et le colonel Travis est très explicite Ils veulent en decoudre contre les mexicains Ils veulent libérer le Texas de l emprise mexicaine Il faut bien unifier la République U S Ça ne va pas se faire facilement Il faut faire donner du temps au Général Houston ! ! Pour rassembler une troupe solide et nombreuse Hommes braves et courageux !!

You know I'm Scottish and we had the same nasty and bitter nonsense from the English about the film 'Braveheart ' not being historically accurate. Like the 'Alamo' it was a great movie.....First class entertainment and like the 'Alamo' movie it has aroused a curiosity that wasn't there before. I just know that these films were so good I'd watch them again & again..….I dont think there has ever been a movie that has been absolutely 100% historically accurate.....it would be too boring...just rejoice in it all and wish for the day when SCOTLAND becomes a republic and free from our tyrants too. Alba Gu Bra'ith.

Lawrence Harvey was excellent in this movie

REPUBLIC!!!....I like the sound of the word...remember people, u.s.a..is a republic, not a democracy, (in Greek, mob rule)...whenever you hear our democracy, correct them, with the facts...long live the republic!!

Remember the Alamo! WHO!!!

Reviewing this Clip from My iPhones Library Tonite. Was just too Hear how Eloquently Wayne recited that Speech, and how it Truely Showed His feels for the Nation in Which He was raised. Now My POV is that anyone Who faulted Him or Doubted His Loyalty too this Nation? Simply because He had Never Served in it's Military 🎖️🪖 Forces after His Mid Thirties had passed or His Career was Well Established. I Feel those Condescending, ill and Opinionated People, need too Refresh Thier Views and Opinions of Him. By watching and reviewing His Quote's or His Really Exceptional presented, dialogues & the Remarks, that He had Specifically written into, or had put into His Major Roles, through the Year's. These Thing's and His Remarks. Were the #1 Reasoning for Which His Fellow Actor's or Thespians. Went to Washington DC, and Before the United States Congress, too Have the John Wayne, American Hero Commirative Medal 🏅🥇 First Passed, and Dedicated To Him, just before He Died in 1977. I Will Admit that I was a John Wayne Fan, right Off at a Very Young and impressionable Age. because of My Dearly Loved Father being ahhh, absolutely So impressed by Him as Well. Now with that Stuff Said & put aside now? The Man was a Person of His Word, Reputation, His Honor, plus the Morals & the Ideals, that He had been Raised with His Entire Lifetime. This is I Feel is enough, & has been Said, and Now Explained about My Views too Let the debated Remarks or ill Comment's be Brushed Over, and No Bad Q's or Remarks are any longer Out there About The Man, whom We knew as John Wayne. American Actor and Fictional Hero or Character in The Movie's. Thank You for Allowing Me too 😊☺️ Comment. May God Bless US All. 🙏🙏😜😜🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏👍🤔🤔.

John wayne was just sooooo cool!! Mr America 🇺🇸

Brilliant scene.

Brilliant scene!

...not be censored by big tech...Republic!

Regardless of what anyone else says, this is a very accurate depiction of the famous siege of the Alamo. Maybe not 100% accurate, but quite accurate. I'm no historian, but my dad is. I'd say this film is roughly 60 to 70% accurate. 1) Sam Houston promotes Travis to Colonel after he arrives in San Antonio. 2) Bowie and Travis persistently bicker and fight with each other...even to the point of having a dual after the war with the Mexican soldiers is over. Of course, they're all killed, so the dual never happens. But, it would have happened had they not have been killed. Bowie even remarks much later in the film that he'd "hate to look at a coward over a dueling pistol." 3) Emil Sande wants to marry this Mexican woman named Flaca. But, he's killed in a deleted scene, so the marriage never happens. 4) This scene depicted in the video. 5) Colonel Neil goes with Houston early on in the film. In fact, he arrives with Houston at the start. 6) Travis answers a Mexican messenger with a cannon shot. 7) Several men destroy a large cannon after it destroys a chunk of the wall and Beekeeper's keg of whisky. 8) Travis sends out patrols to scout the area. In one such patrol, two men are killed in a deleted scene...after which, Travis orders no more patrols. 9) Travis and Susanna Dickinson are related. He mentions that she's his cousin. 10) Bowie is regretfully informed during the siege that his wife and kids have died from the plague. 11) Colonel Fannin and his men are ambushed before the Alamo falls. How Santa Anna's men got to Goliad before San Antonio is never mentioned, so it remains a mystery. 12) After learning of Fannin's unfortunate fate, Travis allows the volunteers to choose whether to stay or leave after giving them a speech about how brave they are in defending the fort for ten days. 13) Smitty (the youngest defender of the Alamo) is sent to Houston to deliver a message about the Alamo and the situation the Texans are in. 14) Travis tells Captain Dickinson that he's married when Susanna refuses to evacuate shortly before the first of the main battles. 15) There are 50 casualties in the first main battle...28 of which are dead, cutting down their forces by a fairly significant margin and in desperate need of reinforcements, which never come. 16) The Texans go down fighting to the last man at the last battle of March 6, 1836. These scenes above are not in chronological order. But, most of them are very accurate in my opinion. Again, I'm no historian, so all of this may or may not be exactly right. Try not to bash me or insult me if some of these things don't agree with any of you. You can respectfully disagree, of course, and even correct me if you wish.

I enjoy this movie. I am a Texan and live in San Antonio and I hate to tell you this but this movie is not all that accurate. It makes a point about freedom and what a small group men did at the Alamo back in 1836 but John Wayne made the movie John Wayne style. Oh I do love John Wayne and this is one of my favorite John Wayne movie's but it is what it is.

Such a thing was not Texas, but Republic has restored.!

Boy they lay it on thick don't they? Making Crocket sound bigger than Dallas. Came 700 miles to hunt and get drunk?

Maybe some of our learned Democrats should listen to this speech.

The battle itself takes up a small part of this movie which is too bad.

I have seen the movie in early 80s on Iraqi tv

Travis, why not pass the time with a game of solitaire.

Une des meilleures scènes.

At about 48 seconds, he references the "Choctaw Indian Wars" , yeah, that never happened, except in the John Wayne Hollywood Imagination,because there wasn't any "Choctaw Indian War",Choctaws were military allies of the U.S. although I'm pretty sure it's the war people mean when they tell us : "...you guys Lost the War..."

Liberté.

As much as I like John Wayne I liked Fess Parker’s portrayal of Davy Crockett better

This film, though it does have its moments, has not aged well and is generally not regarded as one of Wayne's better efforts--and I think rightly so. The first 3/4 of this overlong movie suffers from the kind of dull sermonizing displayed by this scene, and overall it is downright sanctimonious. Add to that the gross historical inaccuracies in the battle scenes near the film's end. The Duke's best work by far is from earlier in his career, with spectacular efforts such as The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, Red River, Rio Grande, and of course the unforgettable The Searchers.

Republic

2:19 the name of the big goofy guy with the eye patch is--------------?

Cutoff cut off. Short change

Best speech ever.

1:34

I'm not old enough to be president I'm 33 and getting close.

"John Wayne believed in the same republican values that Davy Crockett did." If he did, then that's about all this film got right. This movie is atrociously inaccurate and historical advisers J. Frank Dobie and Lon Tinkle walked off the set and asked that their names be removed as historical advisors.

🤠👍

I wonder what John Wayne would think about the United States today with all the liberalism and political correctness going on?

yeah rigth

Very poor image quality.

John Wayne was a great actor! A World War Two Draft Dodger acting patriotic!

Na

this is a great american film which is very accurate

Only John Wayne could take the Alamo and make it all about him! LMAO

Všeč mi je

A tale of a bunch of immigrant squatters who refused to leave.

Who was the ASS that started calling the United States a democracy? Bet it was a Democrat.

these were such brave men compared to our small handed little ex president trump and the cowardly ted cruz who can not even defend his wife

duke never went to war. what a joke!!!!!

He had a great opportunity to make a great film but didnt.The Alamo is great entertainment but not true to the history of the event.

Bad movie.

The American settlers were pissed Mexico would not allow them to own slaves.....

The Duke was a phony, and never went into military service (he liked Hollywood bullets)! Davy Crockett surrendered at the Alamo folks, and Travis committed suicide at the north wall, and Bowie was found hiding under his bed covers and killed in this fashion...some heroes!
