Factual error: The song that Davy Crockett plays on the violin is 'The Mockingbird Quick-Step,' written in 1855, several decades after the events of this movie (and later used by the 'Three Stooges' as a theme song.).
The Alamo (2004)
Ending / spoiler
Directed by: John Lee Hancock
Starring: Dennis Quaid, Billy Bob Thornton, Patrick Wilson, Jason Patric
The alamo is attacked on the 13th morning. Travis takes a bullet to the head. Bowie is stabbed y bayoneters. Everyone is killed. Crockett is executed in the morning by soldiers. He's a screamer. Houston flees from Santa Anna, but runs into him. Houston attacks and wins. The last imagine we see, is Crockett's spirt playing his violin at the Alamo.

Answer: The siege of the Alamo lasted thirteen days, so events would happen both day and night. The actual final assault began at around 5am, and took no more than ninety minutes - it was over by sunrise.
