Cast

Production

The movie was filmed in the summer of 1987 at Alamo Village, the same set location as John Wayne's The Alamo,[3] using 65 mm IMAX film. The filmmakers leveraged 450 historic reenactors.[3] During production the film generated much controversy among the Tejano population of San Antonio who protested that it was demeaning to their contributions to the city's history,[5][6] and portrayed hispanics as the bad guys.[3] Final editing reduced the runtime from 73 to 45 minutes, removing some objectionable content.[3] The film debuted at the Rivercenter IMAX on March 5, 1988.[3]
