Heroes of the Alamo Heroes of the Alamo Heroes of the Alamo (1937) is a low-budget retelling of the events of the Texas Revolution and the Battle of the Alamo. It was produced by Anthony J. Xydias and reuses the battle scenes of his 1926 silent film "Davy Crockett at the Fall of the Alamo". About 35 minutes of the latter film is available on the DVD of "Heroes of the Alamo", all that remains of the silent film. Unlike other Alamo films that concentrate on Davy Crockett and Jim Bowie, the main protagonists are Almaron (Bruce Warren) and Susanna Dickinson (Ruth Findlay) and
John Ford raping and murdering a white girl. It was erroneously marketed as a suspense film by Warners and was not a commercial success. During 1960, Ford made his third TV production, "The Colter Craven Story", a one-hour episode of the network TV show "Wagon Train", which included footage from Ford's "Wagon Master" (on which the series was based). He also visited the set of "The Alamo", produced, directed by, and starring John Wayne, where his interference caused Wayne to send him out to film second-unit scenes which were never used (nor intended to be used) in the film.
