I heard that the actor who played Travis opened the movie's preview showing in San Antonio with the song "God Bless America".

I was curious as to why they chose an "unknown" to play Travis, especially after the History Channel Hollywood vs. History special where they didn't include the actor who portrayed Travis. I am a Texan, and Travis has always loomed large as a major part of the Alamo, especially given his "Victory or Death" letter which hangs in every good Texan's home....

I don't know. But I really liked the actor and his portrayal. Much better than the one in the old version.

And the one who played Bowie deserves an oscar nod for his performance, IMHO.
