- This clip is posted here to promote the purchase of the full length film about a great moment in American history which is all but forgotten today. Look for a DVD with the special feature on the making of this great move. John Wayne had a passion for the story of the Alamo, and went to great lengths to make this movie with a cast of thousands of extras. Nothing digital here!
Before the New York Trade Center was attacked, we remembered Pearl Harbor. Before Pearl Harbor, we remembered the Alamo where from February 23, through March 6, 1836, 153 men stood against tyranny of General Santa Anna and his battle-hardened Mexican army of 7,000. Today it is easy to overlook the great cost of liberty and freedom in the history of the United States. Beyond the movie, learn about the real Alamo, and the bravery of liberty-loving souls who stood hopelessly outnumbered, laying down their lives for the hope of a better tomorrow. This clip John Wayne's passion for the Alamo is clear as he expresses in the character of Davy Crockett, what the word "republic" means to him

No one ever defined "Republic" any better than this. This is what America is, a Republic, and we as Americans need to remember that and continue remembering it and reminding others that is what we are. As the Pledge of Allegiance states:. " I Pledge Allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the REPUBLIC for which it stands, One Nation UNDER GOD, indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for All!"
"Go or come, buy or sell, be drunk or sober, however you choose."
One of the best John Wayne short speeches ever!
“Republic. I like the sound of the word. Means people can live free. Talk free. Go or come by our self be drunk or sober, however they choose. Some whereas give you a feeling. Republic is one of those words that makes me tight in the throat…” John Wayne as David Crockett in The Alamo
Unfortunately, this plodding film, besides being highly inaccurate historically, suffers from this kind of long-winded sermonizing throughout its first 80%. Only the last half hour or so is even remotely interesting, though still inaccurate.
Republic 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊 I like the sound of that word
Who's here because of house of cards?
The Duke in one of his finest movie moments.
There's a reason he recieved that medal, 'John Wayne: American.'
Damn I wish I had been able to actually meet The Duke in person.
Sadly though he passed away just 5 short years before I was even born.
My dad still made sure thought that I was raised on his movies and others like them so I would grow to be the man I am today.
It makes me sad to see how so many haven't learned to be as patriotic and honorable as Wayne was.
May you rest in God's grace, Wayne. You are truely missed.
LONG LIVE THE LONE STAR STATE
Amazing how this movie came out in 1960 and has good graphics and good acting as well.
Remember this movie and remember this Speech by the “Duke “… Even after all these years, not in it’s entirety ..just the emotion that was put into the dialogue in the movie...“Republic “
Republic , This should be played in Congress EVERY DAY. Also in the Oval office. Schools we will let go to only once a month. Every night at
It cut off, but Travis is quoted to have said: "They, uh...seemed to have accomplished that." He was referring to Crockett's line about his Tennesseans coming South to "hunt and get drunk".

beautiful film musical score Dimitri Tiomkin
It’s a shame some of the footage from the negatives to The Alamo got damaged and beyond repair. Since the VHS release, this is why the movie is always edited. The beyond-repair-footage was edited out. The best way to watch this movie uncut is if any of you can get a laser disc version under the NTSC region.
He has spoken
