The Milagro Beanfield war
by Dee Ann Trujillo (Denver,CO USA)
I loved it because we have a family tye with the movie. My husband god father played guitar in the movie, and we are from Toas NM
3/5
One of the best opening scenes ever
by M. Arave
For Redford's debut film, this was not a bad effort. The plot is average and so is the acting. But it is a 'cute' film that contains (I think) one of the best opening scenes ever done. If you haven't seen it before it is worth the entire movie. Enjoy.
5/5
Fiction is often closer to the human spirit than non-fiction
by Michael A. Nelson (Here)
Beside the location, rural northern New Mexico, which I enjoy, this film combines multiple techniques to get the viewer into its theme and spirit. For some, the visualizations and conversations of the old man may be a detriment, but for me life has much that is mysterious and this element added to the story. I also like to see films where the acting is more important than the recognition-factor of actors.
5/5
good story telling
by Eva D. Wehrle
A wonderful story, well told. Captures the beauty of Northern New Mexico, the truth about the people of the land and just a good tale. The native tale mixed with a reality of changing society. Great video to watch and ponder.
5/5
my favorite movie
by Kelly Dolson (Washoe Valley, NV USA)
This is my favorite movie of all time and was pleased to find it at such a low price. I've had it before on tape, but now that I have a DVD player and recycled my VCR, I wanted a copy to share with my son. A must see, feel good movie from the 80's.
The Milagro Beanfield War Summary
A Poor New Mexican Dares To Grow Beans With A Developers Deeded Water. Directed By Robert Redford. Studio: Uni Dist Corp. (mca) Release Date: 05/31/2005 Starring: James Gammon Richard Bradford Run Time: 117 Minutes Rating: R Director: Robert Redford
Robert Redford's underrated directorial follow-up to his Academy Award-winning
Ordinary People
,
The Milagro Beanfield War
is a loose and whimsical fable about community pride and social activism in the face of modern progress. Sonia Braga (
Kiss of the Spider Woman
) plays a local mechanic in a small New Mexico town who takes up the challenge of rallying support for a local farmer who uses water owned by a real estate developer to grow beans in his field. Everything escalates to a showdown between the townspeople and the developers, with unexpected results. The strongest aspect of the film is the way it doesn't take itself too seriously, with Redford adopting a leisurely tone and allowing his fine cast (including Ruben Blades as the pragmatic town sheriff and Christopher Walken as a nasty state police officer) to deliver finely nuanced performances that touch on themes of faith and perseverance without seeming heavy-handed.
The Milagro Beanfield War
is an overlooked gem.
