Absolutely love this scene. Captures the American spirit to a T. Yeah you’ve bombarded us for days. Deprived us of sleep. We’re starving. Hungry. Low on powder. But have some of this tune that captures the rebellious American spirit. I love it.
@@RowdyNoo Crockett was from Tennessee homie. Don’t forget it either. We’re Volunteers because we Volunteered to whoop some ass for y’all. I’ll stick to my word that it’s American spirit.
Very moving scene. Always has moved me, this morning it's brought me to tears. To me it's a commentary on life. Life isn't always beautiful - it's difficult, there's problems, there's suffering, death is everywhere and knocking at our door, death, loss, despair. "God I hate this tune". But Davy says - "I just figured out what it's missing". And then this. Beautiful. So suffering is a part of life - but we don't have to hate it. I just figured out what the tune of my life is missing. A little harmony, a little music, a little art. We can face this life with dignity, grace, purpose - and yes, even joy. It's doubtful that the legend of The Alamo is factually correct, but it is a beautiful tale. And above all, this scene. Beautiful.
Kevin Swift One day soon the heavens will roll up like a scroll and Christ the Messiah will return and at last there will be no more wars, desease or death. Yes this Messiah so many call a fable and myth will return and rule and reign on earth.
@@jesussaves21 It has nothing to do with Jesus. I reckon Jesus the man would have wanted everyone to find the beauty in their own experience... that's why he was so controversial. All the best.
Amazing how even enemies can respect each other through music. The Confederates and Union troops during Xmas. The Germans and Allied Forces on the front lines during Xmas singing Xmas carols. God Bless those that have sacrificed their lives for a cause no matter if good or bad
Can I just say Davy Crockett is one of the BEST characters in the movie. Like he shot Santa Ana’s little shoulder pad off and now he plays his violin over the band just the absolute balls of him definitely one of the biggest flexes in history
It’s cool to see but I don’t think he actually did those things at the Alamo. Hollywood probably just added those things. Nevertheless, he’s still an amazing historical figure and this was my favorite part of the movie.
@@tannerplummer1996 He did indeed play the fiddle at the Alamo and raise the spirits of the troops according to a letter written by Travis, he was also called Kwockey by many Mexican soldiers as they referred to someone from the walls who always hit their target. But yes, him silencing the Mexican guns with his fiddle was definitely Hollywood, but at the same time it captured the spirit of his personality and what it must have been like to have been in the company of Crockett at the Alamo
One of the most captivating scenes in this movie is Billy Bob's portrayal of Davie Crockett. He's perfectly cast. His scenes are memorable, down to earth and yet above, but only by force . . He has this bit where he's talking about his "legendary status" . . a status few people in life achieve but not always really want. Case in point; Mr. David "Davie" Crockett. "People expect things. If it had been me, I woulda' jumped over that fence, but that Davie Crockett feller' I can't get away from him."
One thing I loved about this movie is it shows what a legend Crockett was even in his own time, how even the people that fought against him respected him, and that because of this Crockett knew he had a legend to live up to even if it had the outcome of death
I recall a quote from the movie INNERSPACE, made by Lt. Tuck Pendleton (Dennis Quaid) "When things are at their darkest, pal, It's a brave man who can kick back and party "
so you're basically proud that your mother gave birth to you in a specific state of a specific continent on a specific planet in the universe. Alrighty then.
Booker Dewitt I’m proud to be an American and I think it’s good people are proud of where they are from. My people come from Kentucky and we are proud of Crockett too.
My parents always said they liked Billy Bob Thorton in Slingblade; though I never understood why. I like him MUCH better in this setting. It's a much more natural performance. As Davey Crockett, he inspires the troops and gives them all one last hope - "harmony" - to hold onto. Slingblade? pplllggghhh ~
por esta escena me sentí motivado a estudiar música y convertirme en violinista, la senda del guerrero no solo es combate , también es llevar paz y esperanza a todos
The Americans were there as colonists invited and encouraged by the Mexican government. The independence movement evolved from a rebellion to restore the rights of Mexican citizens, spearheaded and largely led by leading Tejanos like the Seguine family. By the time the revolt became a revolution the leadership roles were being assumed by immigrants from America, although that doesn't mean Tejanos were out of it altogether. We know the story of the Anglo defenders at the Alamo but plenty of men and women of Mexican ancestry gave their lives in the battle and in the revolution. Why do you think the first flag of Texas is called the 1824 flag? Mr Escorza. I would like to recommend a podcast called "A New History of Old Texas". The first season looks at the history of the region from the time before the Spanish came, through the Casas Grandas revolt, the grito of Padre Hidalgo and his flight to San Antonio, also so-called Chickens War between Spain and France, the war of rebellion, independence, vaquero culture, the cowboys etc all up to present day San Antonio.Subequent seasons talk about the travels of Cabeza de Vaca, the Republic of the Rio Grande movement led by the colorful Sombrero de Manteca. I can tell you're interested in the REAL history of Texas and I guarantee you'll enjoy the podcast.
I know quite a few people who were kids when the Davy Crockett craze of the mid 50s and early 60s who saw Fess Parker and John Wayne play Davy Crockett, swingin ol Betsy in a defiant last stand, who hate this movie. Their universal, and for many of them their only, reason for hating this movie is they more historically accurate(from what we can go off of from first hand accounts) that Crockett was executed. Baby Boomers, while they complain about the good ol days, cant handle the real history of their childhood heroes being brought to life. Its quite childish to hate a movie because of that.
David Crockett, a courageous leader, killed before the evil Mexican soldiers invading his "homeland". Crockett, worthy of praise, nearly made it to apotheosis alongside Washington and other greats. Well, let's remember that history is always manipulable. They made a slave owner martyr. Crockett was a staunch slave owner, who took up arms for defending legal slavery, in the Mexican province of Texas, abolished by the central Mexican government of General Santa Anna. (Mexico had abolished slavery since 1810). That's the truth, the Alamo soldiers, (anti-slavery) are actually heroes of a badly told story.
As a proud MexAmerican I say you are wrong. Mexico abolished slavery in 1829 but made no effort to free the slaves in Texas. Crockett NEVER owned slaves and was an advocate for Indian rights. That was why he was voted out of office in 1835. He then told his constituents "You may all go to Hell. I will go to Texas!"".
A fiddler on the roof. Sounds crazy, no? Trying to scratch out a pleasant, simple tune without breaking his neck. You may ask, why do we stay here if it's so dangerous?
“The thing that sets the American Christian apart from the rest of the world is that he would rather die on his feet, before he would live on his knees.” -George Washington

Still my favorite scene in this movie.
100% 👌🏻😊

You've captured exactly what I feel listening to this.
Captures the Texas spirit, not the American spirit. Ukrainian soldiers are not capturing their Russian spirit...they are their own world 🐂

Wasn't there a legend among the Mexicans that there actually was someone playing a violin inside the Alamo and that they believed it was Crockett?
I love how the Mexican soldier was almost in awe and said “Crockett”
I started crying a little when the guy started tearing up😢long live TEXAS💪
Amazing how even enemies can respect each other through music. The Confederates and Union troops during Xmas. The Germans and Allied Forces on the front lines during Xmas singing Xmas carols. God Bless those that have sacrificed their lives for a cause no matter if good or bad

This was my favorite scene of the entire movie. When I saw this movie in theaters with my grandma, I couldn't help but cry when it came to this scene.
The universal language that is music. I smile every time I watch. In fact, I'd play another harmony line on my clarinet or sax if I were there
Jesus saves!
"Its amazing what a little harmony can do" Davy Crockett

If ANYONE tears down a statue of Davey Crocket, I will personally arrest them.
if i can go back in time I would stand by my brothers of Texas ✊and listen to Davy Crockett play that harmony
But you’d just die.... everybody was killed and I don’t think you could beat an army of a thousand alone
Texans aren't afraid of a fight. Nor are they afraid to die for their country.
There would be some from neighboring states to help the Texas and happily so
Although not a Texan this tune makes me proud to be an American and God bless Texas
Que le den por culo a tu país.
I could listen to this all day. Its so beautiful ! Aw, I love David crockett
I recall a quote from the movie INNERSPACE, made by Lt. Tuck Pendleton (Dennis Quaid)
"When things are at their darkest, pal, It's a brave man who can kick back and party "
This is the best scene out of the whole movie.
I what to play like him one day
It feels like every, and I mean EVERY character in this movie (except Santa Ana) liked davey crocket
Santa Ana was jealous of Crockett's effortless charisma.
Chronically underrated movie.
This scene is so powerful & moving ❤️
GOD DAMN I'm so proud to be a Texan. FUCK!
same Lone star all the way
so you're basically proud that your mother gave birth to you in a specific state of a specific continent on a specific planet in the universe. Alrighty then.
+photographer85 - You're a fucking moron. With THIS heritage, how could you NOT be proud? Besides, I was born in Maryland, but raised in Texas.

Amazing emotional scene, especially as a musician. This piece is as american as you can get.
OH MY GOD DAVY CROCKETT HAS STYLE!!!
Such a badass, Deadshot and Beethoven in 1 man
We need a little more harmony in this country again.
Gives me chills everytime I hear it
Me seventh grade when I show off my fiddle skills to the 10 grade 1:03
The most badass thing Crockett did.
Actually I believe Crockett played his fiddle while a man named MacGregor played his bagpipes.
favorite scene in the movie
great music love this movie
Sin duda una de las mejores escenas de la pelicula, como toca el violin ante los tambores mexicanos es hermoso
I call this moment the Texas Lullaby
Remember the Alamo!!
From southern Texas

Why did this movie get such bad reviews? It was great!
beacuse the people its stupid , they preffer a movie with drugs and sex , and extremely violence , they can see more than this
Raven Sixx I KNOW RIGHT

If you're gonna play in texas you gotta have a fiddle in the band

How to say F You without uttering a syllable! The American way!
Imma learn the fiddle were I can be like my super hero (Davy crockett
Defiant, the American Way…

If you’re gonna play in Texas, you Gotta have a fiddle in the band. Even Davy Crockett knew that laugh out loud.
