In the Bedroom The film was made in a small town in New England in which Field resides– the house where he, his wife (Serena Rathbun), and their three children live was even used as the setting for one sequence. Rathbun and Sissy Spacek did a portion of the set designing and Field handled the camera himself on many of the shots. The result, most critics said, was stunning. Stephen Holden of The New York Times declared, "In the Bedroom belongs to a handful of films that stand the best chance of one day being regarded as classics." Reviewer Bob Ivry wrote in The Record "I don't mind telling you that In the Bedroom didn't make me cry. It made me weep, mature filmgoers with a hunger for an emotionally satisfying cinematic meal . . . will no doubt find In the Bedroom a work of virtuosity." Neil Norman of The Evening Standard wrote "It is apparent that Field has not only studied the masters of cinematic understatement, such as Ozu and Bergman, but that he fully understands their processes. Consequently, this is a film that lives beyond its two hours. Field's achievement is such a perfectly consummated marriage of intent and execution that he need never make another movie. I would not be alone, I think, in hoping he will make many more." Joe Morgenstern of The Wall Street Journal stated, "This is the work of a calmly confident master," and Anthony Quinn of the London Independent noted, "Field has pulled off something here I thought no American filmmaker would ever manage again: he makes violence feel genuinely shocking." In his review of the film David Ansen of Newsweek declared "Field possesses a mastery of his craft that many filmakers never achieve in a lifetime."

Little Children Todd Field’s, Little Children, based on the novel by Tom Perrotta premiered at the 2006 New York Film Festival to similar accolades:
David Denby of The New Yorker called it, “Extraordinary. One the Best Films of the Year.” And said, “Field works with such fluid grace and perception that the movie goes right to the top.”
A. O. Scott of The New York Times wrote, “Superb! One the Best Films of the Year. Mr. Field proves to be among the most literary of American filmmakers. The result is a movie that is challenging, accessible and hard to stop thinking about.”
And Peter Travers of Rolling Stone said, “Field shows his mastery. He performs a high-wire act that balances hard truth and hard-won tenderness. The film rides its dramatic challenges in perfect pitch. Most movies fade from memory. This one sticks. The film pulls you in like a magnetic force.”
Little Children was named Best Picture of the Year, by the San Francisco Film Critics Circle, received three Golden Globe nominations including Best Picture of the Year, went on to be nominated for two Screen Actors Guild awards, the Writer’s Guild Award for Best Adapted Screenplay, and three Academy Awards, including one for Field that he shared with Tom Perrotta for Best Adapted Screenplay.
