Redford\u2019s biggest tie to New Mexico was his work on the 1988 film \u201cThe Milagro Beanfield War,\u201d all shot in Truchas. \u201cI think it opened the door for New Mexico to be a candidate for more film work. I had worked in a film prior to it, but it was very small,\u201d said Victoria Plata, who worked with Redford as the coordinator for extras on the film.<\/p>\n

All of those actors are from towns across northern New Mexico. \u201cHe really wanted to give it the flavor that John Nichols had given to the book, and the only way to do that was to film it here and to film it with local people,\u201d said Plata.<\/p>\n

Now, she is looking for those people to share a memento that not everyone got. \u201cWe took a photo, the still photographer took a photo for everyone to have. Unfortunately, I did not have phone numbers, and there were no such things as emails, and cell phones at the time,\u201d said Plata.<\/p>\n

Around 200 people are in the photo, including Redford. Plata hopes those in it will reach out for a copy. The film left an impression on many people, including Plata and her daughter, who both appeared in the film. \u201cBob made friends with those people. They adored him. They really loved working on this film. It was probably the highlight, as it is for me, of their lives,\u201d said Plata.<\/p>\n

Extras who are in the photo or their family members are encouraged to reach out to Victoria Plata; her email is milagroyvp@gmail.com.<\/p>\n
