==Films== Raymondville's history was the subject of the film, ''Valley of Tears.'' The movie visits the Mexican-American community that had worked the onion fields of rural South Texas in three different eras, observing how the seeds of change planted 20 years ago seem ready to bear fruit today. Politicians and officials interviewed in the film include Larry Spence, former District Attorney Juan Angel Guerra, Paul Whitworth, Wetegrove families, Dr. Allan Spence, and school-board and city-council members.<ref>{{cite web |title=film review VALLEY OF TEARS documentary movie about Mexican-American farm workers in rural Texas <!-- |author-link=Joshua Tanzer --> |first=Joshua |last=Tanzer |work=Offoffoff.com |access-date=2013-09-10 |url=http://www.offoffoff.com/film/2003/valleyoftears.php |quote="Valley of Tears" is a look into another world.
