Review :

Remember the Alamo!

Joel McCrea was getting pretty long in the tooth when he made this film about Sam Houston's part in the accession of Texas to the Union. There's something slightly disturbing about him romancing the yummy young Felicia Farr – a bit like watching your uncle trying to get off with your little sister – and he doesn't really have the vigour his part calls for. I'm not sure how true to reality the movie is – not very, probably – but it manages to make a fairly dull plod of it anyway. The cast features Western heroes such as Crockett and Bowie, but they're very much secondary characters with their deaths – and the fall of the Alamo – taking place off-screen. It's a fairly old-fashioned movie, even for the mid-1950s, not helped by an obvious lack of money – Houston's army of 300 looks more like 30 – and director Byron Haskin's unimaginative use of colour.
