I was forced to read an essay on this exact subject my Freshman year at a Marxist 4-year University of lower learning. I was then forced to write about John Wayne's depiction of Crockett and how it was "racist" and "insensitive" to the many Mexicans that played a much more vital role in The Alamo than they were given credit for.
The socialist/communist replacement and defication on our idols continues......next stop, demoagogues.

Wait a minute.
I was once told that the best movie about the Titanic is a now nearly-forgotten B&W film called "A Night To Remember". Surely this must be the case with the Alamo. This movie starring the Duke couldn't possibly have been the only movie made re: this historical event. Was there another, possibly better, now nearly-forgottten version made earlier?
