The Alamo

*Falacies of the Useless* ✓Script (history) and Performances: [0.4] The film has some good actors, protagonists, but the extras was hurting the eyes. The story is very detailed, there's only one problem, that's John Wayne's ultra-nationalist point of view. The man manages to be racist, sexist and still misrepresent the whole story by turning the Mexicans into the 'invading forces' in this confrontation across Texas. It would be enough for him to be more impartial, but that's impossible for John Wayne, who is still a great actor hahaha ✓Theme(Direction):[0.5] The film wants to present accounts of the war for Texas in the 19th century, with a little bit of humor enhanced by the director, John Wayne. As stated above, it is the North American vision, it does not guarantee 100% historical fidelity. ✓Costume:[0.8] ✓Makeup:[0.5] The clearly fake blood and the well made-up women in a siege was unreal. ✓Edition:[0.6] The editing could have delivered a smaller film, without diminishing the wealth of information, as the pace was quite slow. ✓Aim of the Film:[0.8] ✓Photography:[1.0] ✓Art Direction:[1.0] ✓Visual Effects:[0.5] ✓Sound:[1.0] Grade: 7.1
