"A diamond-hard, 'rough-hewn' masterpiece!"-Chicago Daily News
John Wayne produces, directs and stars in this "bigger than life (Life Magazine) chronicle of one of the most remarkable events in American history.At the Alamo -- a crumbling adobe mission -- 185 exceptional men joined together in a sacred pact: they would stand firm against an army of 7,000 and willingly give their lives for freedom.
Filmed entirely in Texas, only a few miles from the site of the actual battle, The Alamo is a visually stunning and historically accurate celebration of courage and honor.Co-starring Richard Widmark, Laurence Harvey and Chill Wills, and garnering seven Oscar nominations, it is a "truly memorable movie spectacle" (Leonard Maltin).
