It is available on Youtube. Just go there and on search type in Martyrs of the Alamo, Part 1 and it will take you to it. It is available in nine parts of about a little over 8 minutes each. The movie was made in 1915 and called Martyrs of the Alamo - The Birth of Texas. Of course it is about the battle of the Alamo in 1836 but the last part is about the battle at San Jacinto.
The movie is silent of course and it does have historical flaws and some racists tones but bear in mind that this movie was made in 1915 and was accepted then much to the discredit of the times. But it is a historical movie that was a great production achievement at the time and I hope those who watch it will do it in the historical film achievement aspect part.
Hope you enjoy it.
