'The Milagro Beanfield War' is a 1988 American drama film based on the John Nichols novel of the same name, the first book in a trilogy. It was directed by Robert Redford and the screenplay was by Nichols and David S. Ward.

Filmed on location in Truchas, New Mexico, the film is set in the fictional rural town of Milagro, with a population of 426. In keeping with the northern New Mexico setting that it is depicted as being a part of, Milagro is a predominantly Hispanic and Catholic town, with a largely interrelated population.

The picture tells of one man's quixotic struggle as he defends his small beanfield and his community against much larger business and New Mexico state political interests.
