The Milagro Beanfield War

The poor residents of a small New Mexico town had lost hope when developers diverted the local water access. One frustrated farmer (Chick Vennera), though, stumbled on a means of irrigating his crops... and found himself becoming a local hero and improbably invincible nemesis to the powers that be. Robert Redford's wonderfully drawn seriocomedy also stars John Heard, Ruben Blades, Sonia Braga, Christopher Walken, Daniel Stern, Melanie Griffith; don't miss Paul Newman's "cameo." 118 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English; Subtitles: English; audio commentary; theatrical trailer.
