- John Wayne portrayed Davy Crockett in The Alamo.
John Wayne believed in the same republican values that Davy Crockett did. The movie is historically inaccurate, but Crockett would have likely said this about a Republic.
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.”
I Meant too Say the Very Same thing.
And that Scene & Wayne's delivery of that Small Statement. Never Fails too Choke Me Up. Every Time I Hear His Voice. Thank You.

Hey to Larry Freeborn. IF You are going too Comment back too Me. Speak Up & say what you want. Please don't answer in just random Letter's. As I don't know WTF You are Saying. IF you can't answer Clearly? Don't Respond to Me at all. As I don't really care what You Think 💬🤔 or Say. So Chew on That.
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.
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.
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.
His Republic speech brings a tear. Great Scene!
God! What a Great Man.. John Wayne.
My favorite scene from my favorite John Wayne movie.
"REMEMBER THE ALAMO"!
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.
"Make sure you're right then go ahead."
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
It probably was at least by Bowie. He was married to a Mexican national.
@@vikingmedic8107Deaf Smith and John Smith as well!
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
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.
One of my very favourite John Wayne scenes.
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,
Brilliant speech from the Duke! He is what America stands for, or at least should. Legend
You got that right he was a racist asshole ! Research what he said in real life he was terrible period ! I liked his westerns but the man was not very patriotic if you understand the term !
@@MegaGoogoohead he was not a racist asshole
@@jason686361able the guy who thought that black americans needed to be ruled by whites until they were “educated to a point of responsibility” wasn’t racist? And who thought that genocide against Native Americans was justified because they were “selfishly trying to keep” the land for themselves? Do explain.
Bullshit
@@BeggarsNight GFY soy
A SOOOOOOOOO GREAT MOVIE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!🏆🥇
Great words... Thanks, Duke.
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.
100% Correct
4:55 Republic..I like the sound of the word.
And in America, the 50 state Republic just died..... Jan 2021.
Harvey was Lithuanian, moved to South Africa, then on to the UK. Ended up an alcoholic, dead at 45.
Thanks for posting this !
Ok never ask me to play tag with him. Playing tag with him seems to 🤕..... 😂
A very enjoyable film on any count...
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!
My favorite film
I approach The Alamo the same way that I approached the two Wyatt Earp movies that came out in the 90s. While Kevin Costner's was far more historically accurate (and not a bad movie by any means), I would much rather sit through Tombstone and be entertained. The same goes for The Alamo. Billy Bob Thornton's 2004 version was more accurate (and again not a bad movie), but for all its schlock give me the Duke's version - much more entertaining to watch
To John Wayne! 🥃
I'd like to see John Wayne take on the cancel culture of today, just like he always did !
So who would you like to see The Duke cancel?
Ah yes ... white supremacy vs cancel culture. What a battle that would be!
@The Richest Man In Babylon Sometimes the irony is just the Richest.
He did say that blacks had had a raw deal for many years. His last public political statement was criticism of the way the law was going after teenage kidnap victim Patty Hearst. He made a good point about the Jonestown suicides being put down to brainwashing but not Hearst transformation in captivity. His heart was in the right place.
Absolutely 💯
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.
"Well, they seem to have accomplished that."
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.
Sure tough guy. And I am sure you will find bigfoot, the aliens at Rozwell and the guy on the grassy knoll as well
@@jamesdiaz2175 Your mother did a terrible job
A Hollywood film that's historically inaccurate? Imagine THAT!
I think it would be more amazing if we had a hollywood film that was accurate for anything. Also a scottish film that was accurate - now that would be a first.
Johnus Waynous!!!!!! The Dukous!!!!!
I LOVE HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WHO ELSE WAS MORE AMERICAN THEN THE DUKE, HE GAVE US MORE
THEN ALOT OF OTHERS. A TRUE AMERICAN
swampfox432 ** he didn't fight like other Hollywood stars did in WW II
He was a snivelling coward. When the bullets were flying for real, he used 2 different deferments to get out of military service. Classic chicken hawk. He was a good actor. Played the part of a super patriot. But in real life was nothing but a coward.
@@rantingcurmudgeon oh get the fuck outta here! He wanted to go..they wouldn't let him..thought he would be a great morale booster in his films..idiot!!
@@rantingcurmudgeon the only coward here is you punk...why dont get out of our country and go back to the hole u crawl out of loser!!! 👹
Jimmy Stewart....just quieter
John wayne was just sooooo cool!! Mr America 🇺🇸
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. 🙏🙏😜😜🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏👍🤔🤔.
Russians: We have a slapping tournament. What do you Americans have?
Americans: Well .... 2:30
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
I think it may have said something about the man that Travis was (in the movie). Travis didn't consort with the rabble so he wouldn't drink with them either. In another scene that is sometimes cut out of certain prints. Travis and Dickinson discuss the differences between Jeffersonian and Hamiltonian stye Democracy. When I first saw him drinking in his quarters I was confused but then I thought about it and came to this conclusion.
@@franknberry6397 i agree.he was also as portrayed in the film very careful of the image he presented.he for example makes no attempt to bond with the men as eqauls as do bowie and crockett he is the commander full stop.he would in no circumstances drink in a low tavern with crocketts men or crockett given what he thinks of him at first though he changes his opinion.however he did need crockett so said he didnt drink rather than give a perceived insult.in fairness the duke of wellington led men in battle for years but considered them scum and told them so! he wouldnt have dreamed of associating with the troops and would never have thought of drinking with them.
I like the '87 version the most.
Brilliant scene.
Lawrence Harvey was excellent in this movie
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.
Remember the Alamo! WHO!!!
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 !!
Such a thing was not Texas, but Republic has restored.!
...not be censored by big tech...Republic!
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.
EXcuse me, we English did not give' bitter and nasty nonsense'. We left that to you Scots and the Americans. You have a history of it.
I'm curious, do you actually want Scotland to be independent, or do you just want to exchange England for Europe?
@@reic0002 So you Brits are above all that, huh?
Pfffftttttt riiiight.
Very funny.Travas was English and Texas has English common law .Early on they debated weather to adopt the Union flag into there State flag.Scotland has Roman law ,thousands of Scots flocked to Texas when their clan overlords disposes,d them .England is the 5th economy in the world and keeps you out of the bastille.
I think the failed Scottish enterprise in the south America saw the the of Scottish political independence
Brilliant scene!
Une des meilleures scènes.
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!!
Agreed, Texas was a Republic long before it became a state. And Democracy means Mob rule, the majority rules. Unfortunately that is what is happening now, back then the US was still a Republic. After Lincoln and the War between the States it ceased being a Republic, now I would call it an Empire.
Tired of the finger pointing saying Democrats are bad. Finger pointing is happening on BOTH sides.
Boy they lay it on thick don't they? Making Crocket sound bigger than Dallas. Came 700 miles to hunt and get drunk?
Well that kind of was Davey Crockett's style - he was a braggart politician who inflated his exploits with plays and almanacs. Bowie was guilty of this to a lesser degree, but he certainly was closer to his legend.
Liberté.
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.
Except for Bowie's Nock volley gun, except for the raid to knock out the siege gun, except for Bowie wanting to abandon the Alamo, except for Crocket blowing up the powder magazine in the end. Frankly, any Texas account of the siege is open to question as it is based on Susanna Dixon's account, which assumes (1) that she was actually able to see the action, and (2) that her version is accurate and not tailored to emphasize the heroism and skill of the defenders.
I would have sent out patrols to try and capture Santa Anna and delay or stop the siege and war in Texas.
You forgot bout the Tejano that font and the site of the Alamo and lost his life and his brother that van decided Santana and asked if he could recover his brother's body he's the only one Defender of the Alamo they got a Christian burial and I'm sure for I'm sure you forgot a lot of other important thanks you never mentioned the town was it fought on the side of the Alamo like Hollywood personally I never have cared for this movie the last movie they made for TV about the Alamo what's more accurate than this one they do mention Times by name and the role they play in the Battle of the Alamo
John Howard p
"Several men destroy a large cannon after it destroys a chunk of the wall and Beekeeper's keg of whisky."
Oh, for crying out loud. Half the stuff you cite never happened, in particular this. The Alamo is a great movie, but never take it as a history lesson.
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.
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
1:34
Travis, why not pass the time with a game of solitaire.
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..."
Yea your IQ hovers around room temperature
@@JoshyP744
This from a guy trying to defend some ficticious "Choctaw Indian War" that never took place
August 1814, Andrew Jackson wrote a letter requesting help from Choctaw warriors in his upcoming campaign against British forces in the Southeast.
@COACH CLEARFLOSS
795 Choctaws, including Pushmataha, reported to Fort Montgomery and were mustered in as regular troops. In and around Pensacola, they fought in the last skirmishes of the Creek War, and would later continue with Jackson to New Orleans to defeat the British, War of 1812
@@JoshyP744
Choctaw Chief Pushmataha died December 24, 1824. General Andrew Jackson visited him in his last illness and asked what he could do for him. Pushmataha replied, “When I die, let the big guns be fired over me.” He was given the funeral of a general of the United States Army and his remains buried in the Congressional Cemetery at Washington, where his monument may be seen today.
Best speech ever.

Maybe some of our learned Democrats should listen to this speech.
As much as I like John Wayne I liked Fess Parker’s portrayal of Davy Crockett better
Cutoff cut off. Short change
I'm not old enough to be president I'm 33 and getting close.
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.
yeah rigth
Very poor image quality.
I wonder what John Wayne would think about the United States today with all the liberalism and political correctness going on?
Where were you on Jan. 6th? Thpe Duke, would have stood with the Capital Police defending the Capital like "The Alamo" from yahoos like you .
@@richardmuniz6916 I didn't attack the Capitol nor would I have entertained the thought of doing so. I do however believe the election was fraudulent since there is no way to verify hundreds of thousands of mail in ballots as being legitimate votes. Its a guessing game at best. I believe abortion to be murder of the unborn. I believe marriage is between a man and a woman; not two men or two women. I believe one is born either male or female and should not mutilate their own body because they fantisize that they are something they are not. I believe we should have secure borders without anyone and everyone coming into the country we know nothing about and possibly bring diseases with them. I believe liberalism is just another term for Marxism and Communism which will destroy this country if allowed to grow. I don't believe any one race has a monopoly on evil since the Bible says all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. This critical race theory is a bunch of crap put together by a bunch of losers who refuse to accept or take responsibility for their own short coming but instead blame them on someone else. If that makes me a yahoo then so be it.
@@horseman528 if you honestly believe that there’s no way to verify mail-in votes, something that has been the norm in many states for decades, you’re entirely ignorant of the process. Just like every other bad-faith fascist who claims such.
The validity of an election isn’t a matter of belief, no matter what the sadly regressive modern conservative movement might say. It’s a matter of fact. And the fact is Trump lost because he did a shitty job and lost support. Get over it.
@@BeggarsNight If you can't figure out the potential for fraud in millions of mail in ballots then you are beyond help. They simply waited until the polls were almost closed to see how many they would have to print up in order to win. Explain how a mail in ballot is verified to be legitimate when no one is there to verify with a photo id who they are. Impossible. Then there were all those cases which have been verified of people going to the polls and being turned away because they were told they had already voted.
@@horseman528 lol, so you think it was a fraudulent election, yet you don’t even know how mail ballots are verified. That’s pretty typical.
Every state has different rules. Signature and contact info is the most common, and some DO require copies of IDs. Getting a mail vote counted is actually HARDER because even the most slight change in your recorded signature will result in your ballot being tossed, and only a few states give you a chance to correct it. And that’s leaving out the barriers of even RECEIVING a mail-in ballot in the first place. So yea…..it’s not the auto-count process you seem to believe it is.
But you could have learned all this yourself. The simple truth is you don’t care about the truth and will choose to believe a lie with absolutely no supporting evidence before you’ll accept a fact.
Like “all those people” who were told they already voted. Guess what: mistakes like that have happened ever since humans began holding free elections, and it’s never been a significant number. But only this election do you suddenly notice it. It’s like you’re ignorant not only of the voting process, but of electoral history in general. That you actually think that “they” can just throw whatever votes they want into a box to manipulate the vote is so astoundingly ridiculous, not least because you don’t seem to grasp that this would mean every election ever held would be suspect. Because there were no significant differences from any other time.
But again, you clearly don’t care about all that. You’ll just say and believe what you gotta, no matter how ridiculous, because apparently you can’t cope with facing reality.

"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.
It's a docudrama compared to MY DARLING CLEMENTINE, directed by Wayne's mentor John Ford, or Errol Flynn's CHARGE OF THE LIGHT BRIGADE The speechifying may be a little much, but Americans really DID feel that way in 1836, and the final battle is worth the wait
Everyone Chill Out! To make a Good Movie that is Historically Accurate is almost impossible. Look at Hacksaw Ridge, Tora, Tora, Tora, 55 Days in Peking or The Battle of Britain. A movie that was rigidly held to real chronological events, precisely the way the occurred would be boring. It would consist mainly of people arguing, whining and complaining or boasting. If you DO make a movie that is Historically Correct you end up with a Documentary. To make a movie that is Entertaining directors use as much “Artistic Expression” that they can get away with. Think of Brad Pitt and Orlando Bloom in “Troy.” That film had almost nothing to do with “The Iliad” or Homer. It was entertaining but if I were the nation of Greece I would have sued. Remember in the novel the duel between Achilles and Hector was almost all about Achilles chasing Hector around the walls of Troy. How boring would that be?
John Wayne was a great actor! A World War Two Draft Dodger acting patriotic!
Všeč mi je
this is a great american film which is very accurate
Only John Wayne could take the Alamo and make it all about him! LMAO
"The Last Command" used the perspective of Jim Bowie. In this film, using the perspective of David Crockett w/ John Wayne in that role was a natural, safer money gamble. Producing a film is usually a high-stakes, high-risk play. If I had millions at the mercy of a fickle public, I would have gone w/ Wayne. Since Wayne produced the film, he had final say, but I believe personal $$$ was a more determining casting factor than ego for that role.
A tale of a bunch of immigrant squatters who refused to leave.
Well, they had been invited in, granted citizenship, participated in republican government, and then seen their republic overthrown by a military dictatorship. Ours was neither the first nor the last rebellion against Santa Anna. It was merely the most successful. The rebellion was supported by both English and Spanish speaking Texicans. If you go to San Antonio, and see the cenotaph in Alamo Plaza, you will see names like Gonzales and Seguin on it. At the battle of San Jacinto, as the Texican army advanced, on the left flank, the battle cry was not, "Remember the Alamo!" but rather, "Recuerda el Alamo!"
but you dont have a problem with today's illegals do ya? Spineless hypocrite

duke never went to war. what a joke!!!!!
will segen - He could've gone, but at the time he had a family; of little kids, and he was starting to get a bit old to enter the army.
His family needed him, and if he had gone and gotten killed, he may have indeed been an American hero, but that wouldn't have done his family any good.
And if he had gone, he may have not become the screen legend he became.
Except for Jimmy Stewart and Clark Gable, very few Hollywood stars who served wound up in combat. Two future actors who did serve, Richard Boone and Lee Marvin, had two things in common; both liked Wayne and both had horrible combat experiences that gave them PTSD which helped drive them to drink
🚨HEY stupid, it's common knowledge that many movie stars could do a hell of a lot more for the war effort here at home raising money and doing publicity shots to help the war effort than get there ass shot on a front line.😱 think about it
You might find out why Mr Wayne’s close friend was Chesty Puller and why he was on the Canal at the same time Chesty Puller was.....
will segen strangely enough he was on Guadalcanal during the heaviest fighting to dee his good friend Chesty Puller...... hmmmmmm
Bad movie.
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.
The American settlers were pissed Mexico would not allow them to own slaves.....
You would rather Texas be part of narco mexico? lol , friggin idiot
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!
Bowie was in bed yes, deadly ill. You need to read your history. As for the Duke, he tried to enter the military. Read up on it boy.
