Sally Field, one of Hollywood’s most respected and beloved actresses, has captivated audiences for decades with her versatility and emotional depth. At 76, she continues to impress with recent roles in series like Winning Time and Dispatches from Elsewhere. But in a recent interview, the two-time Oscar winner offered fans a rare glimpse behind the scenes—by sharing a surprising memory from her time on set.
Sally Field is an American actress and director, born on November 6, 1946. She is known for her diverse roles in film and television, including “Gidget”, “Norma Rae”, “Places in the Heart”, “Steel Magnolias”, and “Forrest Gump”. Field has received numerous accolades, including two Academy Awards, three Primetime Emmy Awards, and two Golden Globe Awards. She is also recognized for her advocacy work, particularly on women’s health issues.

During an appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, Field was asked about her most awkward on-screen kiss. Laughing and initially hesitant, she joked, “Shall I really name names here?” With encouragement from the host, she eventually revealed that the least enjoyable kiss came during a scene with none other than Burt Reynolds—a surprising answer, given that the two were not only co-stars but also dated for several years in the late 1970s.
When asked for more details, Field explained that while their chemistry off-screen was often portrayed as strong, it didn’t always translate the same way on screen. “It just wasn’t something that worked for me during filming,” she said. “It wasn’t what you might expect.”
