Norma Rae, Places in the Heart, Mrs. Doubtfire, Forrest Gump, and Lincoln. But ask her how it feels to be an icon, and the 76-year-old gives a look and an answer that clearly thinks otherwise. “I find it kind of shocking," she says over Zoom.
"I'm not really sure what an icon is. What is an icon? Can you name what an icon is?”Yeah, we can—it's Sally Field. From her career-making roles in TV series like The Flying Nun and Gidget to the 1989 tearjerker Steel Magnolias, the Oscar winner is a household name thanks to her performances.
But Field's goal in Hollywood has never been about fame—her focus is on fine-tuning her craft and making a living out of it. Because of that, she doesn't have an answer when asked if she remembers a time where she started to feel confident in her chosen profession, in part because it's changing all the time. “It isn't that you don't feel confident," she explains.
"It's that you can't think about [things like that].”Put another way, she never knows if her movies will be successful when she signs on (to be fair, no one really does). So she'd rather fans think about the characters she plays on-screen rather than who she is off. When you command a scene the way Sally Field does, though, that's nearly impossible.
She disagrees.“There's something weird about being a celebrity,” she says. “Why are people that I don't know thinking about me at all? Honestly, the one thing to be thinking about is the film.” This time around, “the film” is a romantic dramedy that opens nationwide on Friday, December 9. She stars opposite , Ben Aldridge, and Bill Irwin, and the story is based on real-life TV journalist Michael Ausiello and his journey through love and grief.
