"Alamo Village still active movie set."

The Brackett News, Thursday, June 14, 2007.

"Virginia Shahan and Village stand the test of time."

"Virginia Shahan, owner of the Alamo Village, recently celebrated what would have been John Wayne's one hundreth birthday with a cake and lots of good stories.

"The celebration not only paid homage to the late actor, but proved that one Kinney County man's dream could stand the test of time.

"Shahan's late husband, Happy, built a replica of Texas' historical icon, the Alamo, for John Wayne's movie of the same name in 1959.

"Since the completion of the movie, The Alamo, hundreds of other movies and music videos have been filmed there."

As a recent example, we see in the caption of an accompanying photo:

"Producer and leading man, Eric Braeden, recently completed filming The Man Who Came Back at Alamo Village."
