John Nichols 1:15:21
John reads from his novel the Milagro Beanfield War. He then tells the arduous story of how the script was written & re-written, how the movie was made and how little of his writing ended up in the movie directed by Robert Redford. John spoke at a benefit showing of the Milagro Beanfield War on the 20th anniversary of the film for the Martinez Hacienda on Mar 28, 2008 and is introduced by Morris Whitten. John Nichols views are his own, not those of Cultural Energy, so please, Robert Redford, don't sue us. Editing by Harvey Soloman with normalization by Robin Collier
