Oh, and see the 1960 film "The Alamo" best remembered for the song "The Green Leaves of Summer", John Wayne as director and Davy Crockett (and I grew up with Fess Parker as Crockett; had my own rabbit fur "raccoon" hat), Frankie Avalon acting (this WAS 1960, you know), and lots of historical inaccuracies.
I've just always liked Laurence Harvey and the song "The Green Leaves of Summer".
Remind me , Deborah, to put together a film list of the history of the United States for you. Not that Hollywood ever really got things right (don't let the facts get in the way of a story), but it's a good excuse for popcorn.
