Richard Harris was nominated for several awards (including the Oscar and Golden Globe) for his performance in The Field. The time is the mid-1930s; the place, western Ireland. For many years rugged individualist Bull McCabe (Harris) has been cultivating a small plot of rented land, nurturing it from barren rock into a fertile field. Now, however, the widow who owns the land plans to sell it at auction. The infuriated Bull shows up at the bidding, secure in his belief that none of his neighbors will dare bid against him. But Bull has not taken into consideration a wealthy Irish-American (Tom Berenger), who intends to pave over the land and bring new industry to the area. "This is deep, very deep, deeper than you think" warns Bull, as he sends his grown son (Sean Bean) to "persuade" the American to withdraw his bid. Armed with the foreknowledge that Bull's tenacity has caused heartbreak and tragedy in the past, the audience steels itself for the awful consequences still to come. Punctuating the storyline are the periodic appearances of the toothless village idiot, played by John Hurt. Originally produced for British television, The Field was based on the landmark play by John B. Keane, and directed by My Left Foot's Jim Sheridan. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

父亲突然离世，傻小子一夜之间变的自由和暴富，对爱情和事业全靠“感觉”来把握，结局证明这样做是完全错误的。

2004年，我前往一个偏僻山村进行田野调查，却发现自己步入了一个诡异的陷阱。一个神秘的小女孩半夜出现在我床边，低语说我长得像“唐卡”，这让我联想到了当地用活人制作“人皮唐卡”的恐怖传说。此后，我开始食欲不振却夜夜饥饿，身体日渐消瘦，还时常听到无人承认的怪声。就在我以为是自己水土不服产生幻觉时，村民们对我异乎寻常的热情和关心，尤其是对我“变瘦”的在意，让我不寒而栗。
