I made many trips to AV when I was stationed down the road at Laughlin AFB in Del Rio.It is a very nice place,a friend of mine was an extra in one of the Maverick movies,James Garner visited our base and played golf with some of the Airman,he was a class act.

Sounds like a *project.* LOL This place intrigues me; I hope it gets bought-up and kept for people to enjoy.

Thanks LiM ... your list is proof that even good/great actors can’t pull a movie off without decent script.

Not my list, imdb.com gets all the credit. Wasn’t sure that anyone on the thread knew about it.

“Wow. My grandpa is supposed to be in a crowd scene of The Alamo. I only recently found out & was very surprised, as he was a crusty old-school cowboy who rode & broke horses. Never thought of him as a movie extra.”
My grandfather was a Wyoming cowboy, born in 1881, and worked in Buffalo Bill’s Wild West Show.
He didn’t marry until he was about 40. His nickname was “Tex,” so I assume he may have been in Texas during his bachelor cowboy days.
After marrying and becoming a father, he rode horseback for Marathon Oil to inspect pipelines in northeast Wyoming.

My grandpa is supposed to be in a crowd scene of The Alamo.My brother in law was one of the good guys in the latest Alamo movie. He was on screen a couple of times.
