"The Alamo" Movie Synopsis: From director John Lee Hancock and Oscar- winning producers Mark Johnson and Ron Howard comes an epic motion picture event, the dramatic true story of one of the most momentous battles in American history. “The Alamo” is the tale of a handful of men who stood up for what they believed in and made the ultimate sacrifice against an overwhelming force.

In the spring of 1836, in the face of insurmountable odds, fewer than 200 ordinary men who believed in the future of Texas held the fort for 13 days against thousands of Mexican soldiers led by dictator General Antonio López de Santa Anna (EMILIO ECHEVARRÍA), ruler of Mexico. Commanded by three men – the young, brash Lt. Col. William Travis (PATRICK WILSON), the zealous, passionate James Bowie (JASON PATRIC), and the living legend David Crockett (BILLY BOB THORNTON) – the Texans would die for their beliefs, but their deeds at the Alamo would make history as General Sam Houston’s (DENNIS QUAID) emotional rallying call for Texas independence. The film is written by Leslie Bohem and Oscar® winner Stephen Gaghan and John Lee Hancock.
