The Alamo

The movie started out with Sam Houston attempting to lecturing individuals into miming to Texas, promising them 640 acres of their choosing, but there was no mention of receiving a League of Land. The movie did a good job on depicting the habits of the characters, showing their attitudes and drinking habits. It also showed how concerning Travis was about his uniform. at that place was no mention of Daniel Cloud being the one to ring the bell instead it mentioned someone spotting the Mexican Army while they were Norte to the Alamo.Within 24 hours of Santa Ana arriving, he sent a courier under a grade flag to negotiate surrender which was not shown in the movie. It did however show Bowie ride out to negotiate, and Travis passing the cannon in anger. Shortly into the siege it did show Bowie becoming sick from consumption, eventually becoming sick-abed because of it. There was only a brief reading from Trivias Victory or Death letter with no mention of the P. S. At the end of the let ter. The movie showed a small Mexican detachment fire at the Alamo to size up the forces within.When the decision to burn the village was sought UT, in the movie it showed Davys Crockett by himself vista the village ablaze. In the movie there was no mention of one of the 32 men that came to the auxiliary of the Alamo being shot by friendly fire as they were approaching the mission. On the Mexican human face of the battle, Santa Ana said he was waiting for Sam Houston to enter the Alamo to attack, with no mention that they were actually waiting for the big cannon.During Trivias speech to his men, he didnt specifically mention the fact that Fanning was not coming and when he was knishes with it he didnt do the sword in sand. In the book it was only said that the Mexican band played the tenor on the morning of the attack, however in the movie the played it every morning. During the Mexican assault on the Alamo, in the movie there was not 3 distinct attacks just one large one. Triv ias The Mexicans ar upon us, give them hell was not shown in the movie before he was killed.Davys Crockett was shown as the only subsister of the Alamo, and there was no mention of Emily Dickinson. During the Battle of San Action there were kinda a few quite few things that were off in the movie from the historical facts of the battle, from the location of the bridge, who was set in first, and placement of the Calvary. There was also no mention of TX Rusk informing Sam Houston that they had Santa Ana, but it did show Santa Ana in the lesser uniform. Overall the film was very well done and showed most of the historical facts about the Alamo, and was suspenseful comely to keep anyones attention.The actual historical facts should have been a little more researched and hon. more distinct fully, such(prenominal) as when Travis did the Sword in the Sand speech. In the movie where it showed Travis dispatching Caps Segueing, Travis told Segueing that he chose him due to his knowledge o f the area. after(prenominal) doing a little research I discovered that Caps. Segueing was voted to deliver the letter to Houston despite Travis wanting him to hold on for his knowledge of Mexican Customs and for the fact that he spoke the language. Anytime a movie is made such as The Alamo utmost attention to detail should be taken for factorization.
