We've received notice from an astute fan that it was 50 years ago today that filming commenced on John Wayne's
The Alamo. Hard to believe it's been so long...one of my earliest memories of movie-going is seeing it repeatedly on the big screen when I was only four or five years old. Seems all classic movie goers from the Baby Boomer generation have similar fond memories. The film is not perfect, but its stature increases over the years and it remains one of the most impressive and inspirational epics of its day. Job well done, Duke..
