6 thoughts on “WCW: Sally Field

  1. A Woman Of Independent means (1995) was pretty much the American answer to “A Woman Of Substance”, Sally Put on a brave face and portrayed the lead from her late teens to old age, her character was initially middle class at best then gets an inheritance and gets filthy rich but it affects her life in more ways than one, worth a watch even if only for the costumes!

  2. Of her frock flicks, I’ve only seen Forrest Gump. I initially liked the movie, but it hasn’t aged the best.

  3. Not a flock flick, but loved her in Remarkably Bright Creatures. She’s allowing herself to age naturally and is still beautiful. Incredible actor to boot!

  4. Lov ed her as Mary Todd Lincoln in “Lincoln”. I also enjoyed her in “Forrest Gump”. I had enjoyed “The Way West”. I thought it had a better narrative than “How the West Was Won”. But I didn’t care for Field’s character in the 1967 movie or the costumes she wore.

  5. I was briefly puzzled by the mention of Alias Smith & Jones, as I got it confused with a British sketch comedy series named Alas Smith and Jones (Smith and Jones being the names of the two leading comedians), which is from a decade later…

  6. I suspect the fact that LINCOLN isn’t really a ‘fashion plate’ sort of picture (It’s mostly workaday sack suits or uniforms, if I recall correctly) is probably a contributing factor.

    Also, I’m moderately convinced that Ms Sally Field ranks up there with Dame Judi Dench and Ms Emilia Clarke for ‘actresses who deserve to be left in place despite generating an overwhelming desire to hug them’ energy.

Feel the love
