"Powerful." - Jack Garner, Gannet News Service
Richard Harris made a triumphant return to the screen and received an Oscar® nomination for his outstanding performance in this film. A plot of earth in rural Ireland, the field is rented and lovingly cultivated by Bull McCabe. When its legal owner suddenly decides to sell the land, a wealthy American appears with plans to develop the area. To Bull, covering the land with concrete is a mortal sin. To the villagers, an outsider owning Bull's field is an outrage that McCabe vows to prevent at any cost. Costarring John Hurt, The Field is a compelling story of one man's determined battle to resist change and defend his heritage.
