Hey...the Central Valley farmers all need to watch the “Milagro Bean Field War” about a guy in NM who refused to let the water be turned off so he could have a bean farm...and he won.

There should be a special showing of this movie in all the CV theaters this month.

And these guys in the movie were of course Hispanic, being from NM (Mondragon was their name) and persecuted by the big bad man. St Jude, the Saint of the Impossible was a central figure too.

That is an excellent suggestion.

But, one has to ask -- if you need to show these farmers a movie to inspire them save their own fortunes and livelihoods, do they even have what it takes to fight back?
