    Hi guys are there two versions of Duke's Alamo around? The reason I ask is because I have a version on Video which includes Ken Curtis singing to his daughter. But in the DVD version I have it's not there so that's the reason I ask if there's a cut and un-cut version out there?

    Darren,
    there are at least two versions, one a dirctors cut,
    which included, intro-intermission-end etc,
    and includes many scenes cut from the general release.
    Without repeating what's already been said,
    may I suggest you go back through this thread,
    where you will see all the discussion relating to your question.


    for example here's a good place to start

    Hello, New member here !
    The Alamo is in my top ten J.W. films.
    Great Greeting between Davy Crockett & Jim Bowie.
    I think Duke said " I hear you are pretty good with a knife "
    Please correct if I am wrong.

    Welcome Peter - You'll find your at a very friendly website here at the JWMB. Prop up your feet and join us often.
    BTW - I live in San Antonio where the Alamo is located. I am so glad it was the Duke that honored our city with the film which received its world premiere in October of 1960.

    Cheers - Jay:beer:

    Same here, welcome! The Alamo is my favorite Duke film, so I'm always in the mood to talk about it. Glad to have you with us!
