August 29, 2003 — Billy Bob Thornton spoke to CBS about playing Davy Crockett in "The Alamo":
"We're both Leos," Thornton said. "Crockett was kind of a rock star at the time. He was very well known. When he came to town, people knew who he was. Crockett loved people. He loved to hold court and tell stories, which has kind of been my path in a lot of ways."
