As a survivor myself, I was floored. I had no idea and then I just honed in on her words, her thoughts and all I can say is yes... that's it. There is so much more to it too and it is a bit different for each of us. My mother too knew about one of the times and also did nothing then she passed away hating and blaming me. Ironic, right? Bless you Sally and Diane for this candor and this interview.

@tabitha I, there are a ton of them. It's really crazy. In nature you do not see adults having any sexual interaction with prepubescent animals of their own or any other species but humans? Somehow we're totally f*cked. I don't get it and never have, never will. I always think it's ironic how people of the west codemn people of other cultures as being child abusers when it is all over western society too, just all hush hush about it. My heart hurts for all victims everywhere and can relate. The same for all cultures that engage in genital mutilation, especially in children. I think of them and my heart just aches for them. :'(

@@Cinnabar_and_Chalcanthite yes i understand it happens all over buts its a sickness. Who in there right mind does that to children its just beyond understandable. They should know its wrong. Its sad and her mom found out once about it and did nothing. Its just crazy. A mother is suppose to protect ans a father from the predators. She acted with no response but when she wqs older she had no choice but to appologize because the man died and she was old. Its just horrible

And yet she turned out to be such a beautiful, humble human being. From what we, the public, can see through the glimpses of her in real life, which we didn't get much of that part of her because she managed to stay private, she seems to have turned out to be so "normal". She didn't act like a diva. She was a class act in my book. Sally Field was and is such a beautiful woman. I hope she has nothing but happiness and fulfillment in her life. I'm going to buy her book immediately!

She’s definitely up there. I don’t think it’s necessary to compare bc we like them both. But I will say, Meryl Streep is the Dolly Parton of The Film Industry & Sally Field is the Barbara Streisand lol.. comparatively. They’re both trailblazers for different reasons. Meryl Streep showed she could be strong & feminine & literally play anything. And Sally Field fought against an entire industry of degrading men, type casting, constant disrespect, abuse etc & she still managed to end up with with her heel over the head of the Industry’s “male power”, with a profoundly impressive career to back her. Bless her heart. Theyre both icons.

Now I want to read this. I am glad to hear that Sally Field has been open about the sexual abuse that many women encounter in their lifetimes, and Sally has stood for not only herself, but for every woman, and every marginalized person. There is truth to the saying "only the strong survive," but that isn't always talking about physical strength, but emotional strength. My favorite performances of Sally Field always reflect emotional strength to me. She isn't afraid to go beyond what people think she is limited to.

It’s a shame. I read her book and she’s an Academy and Emmy Award winning actress, yet the impression of her that I came away with is that she has led a very lonely, angry, depressed life. She never mentioned one good friend, or any good relationship with a man, and described a very dysfunctional relationship with her mother. It’s a very sad book. Never be jealous of famous rich people. We never really know what their lives are like.

Her relationship with her would-be husband seemed downright inspirational, but after she divorces him, she scarcely mentions him again, except in a critcal way. she carried a terrible burden for many years....lets hope she is liberated now...

And this is why victims don't come forward right away. It takes a lifetime to process what is and has happened to you. Now we have a monster in the whitehouse who not only does not get it but says such things as if my daughter were not my daughter I would have married her. Totally disgusting. And the gloating of grabbing females by their gentals or showing up in women's dressing rooms while they are changing...makes me want to vomit. There is a whole scroll of sickness about that man but this is about the revelations of Sally Field. I love her work .

She now has a beautiful family of her own. What an amazing woman! An incredibly gifted actress who is so honest, humble and down to earth .

Same here. Always have had nothing but high praise and respect for the works of Sally Field. Absolutely top notch. She was never fat as some once claimed. In fact she was and hopefully still is smacking hot and absolutely lovely and on top of that, now with the benefits of the wits and the brains of a sound mature woman. Born in 1968. My first Sally Field-movie was Not Without My Daughter. Smokey and the Bandit is in my BluRay-collection and it was nice to have it confirmed first hand during this interview what is evident in the movie, that sparkles burned through the acting. It's those little tiny things you notice. Sally Field is without any doubt on my Class-A top shelf. Even when she thinks she's annoying, she's actually a delight and a blessing. That would sum up as being an angel in my book. She is :)

No, don't feel like "poor Sally." She is remarkable and wise and strong. And she is a survivor. Admire her, respect her, but don't pity her. Pity her mother and other mothers who don't have the strength to properly care for their children. Pity children who face this today. As for the men... I just don't know what to feel other than rage, except more pity because it's highly likely, as most perpetrators, her step-father was a victim of abuse himself. People like Sally are the reason this sickness will eventually be cured. It can't be fixed unless we know it exists and we are willing to talk about it.

It just makes you so angry listening to her describe how that monster abused her sexually. Not just that, he screwed with their heads (Sally’s & her brother Ricky) & played all sorts of mind games trying to ruin their self esteem. Sally was right though when she said “I won.” *She did.* She overcame a lot & achieved so much. 👏🏼

Wow wow wow. It’s Sally Field. Such a Queen 👑 💅🏼-& I cant imagine the number of women shes personally helped by deciding to write this book. Took a lot of bravery. She names her abuser. A lot of women (and men) don’t always don’t always do that. Diane Sawyer was respectful & reverent more than usual, but it was still awkward. They do expound on her abuse a bit much in interviews. Sally didn’t do that in her book. She was healthy about it. But its admirable of her to use her platform bc she is known to be private. Shes right there at the table with Streep, Hepburn & Fonda but she’s in a different class all on her own. Who the hell goes from doing something like Sybil to Norma Rae to the Smokeys to Steel Magnolias to Forest Gump & then to Lincoln? Have always loved her movies without even realizing it lol. Boss. 👏🏻 🙏🏻✨

Beth S I thought the same. Can you imagine what she brought into that Sybil role from her fear to covering up and possibly pretending that the sexual abuse happened to someone else. The “it was not me” to “not by my dad” to the “does mother know”. When you go back to the Sybil role she split in a form of protection of the abused little girl.

People are talking now. Just 40 years ago, these things were kept secret even from the mothers of these children being molested. A beautiful person is Miss Fields. All the best and your book might help others to come out and seek help :) Thank you

I see Sally Field as her character in "Absence of Malice," where she played a newspaper reporter. She seems willing to exploit anyone and anything in pursuit of her fabulous career.

I’m finally reading In Pieces now! I wanted to read it when it first came out but never got around to it. I checked w my local library two weeks’ ago and boom, they had 1 readable copy checked in and in large print to boot!! 😊 My son said “wow mom it was waiting for u” 😂 I am thoroughly enjoying it too! Sally Field is one of the greatest entertainers ever and I’m sorry she had to endure what she did and at the hands of someone whom she was entrusted to by her gorgeous mom. She obviously persevered but, still, it’s sad that such occurrences take place and for years at that 😢.. I love you Sally..I could watch your movies ALL DAY.. 🩷💜💛

Sally Field speaks nicely about Burt to the camera yet in her book she put the boot in. Anyone read what she says? about him being controlling and alluding to physical violence. Obviously when he died she was caught out by the publics outpouring of grief and so she decided to be nice about old Burt again.

It's not obvious because you don't know why she does what she does.

She puts damaging things in a book to make money. She starts off with the abuse story when she was a kid, then compares her relationship with Burt as a re-working of her abuse as a kid! She basically stayed with Burt for 5 years and then she became a star and left him. To quote Cannonball Run "It's not what you do it's how you do it" and what sally has done is put the boot into a man who hadn't even been buried! She then had the nerve to attend the funeral. By a side door though. Even she knew what bad taste it was showing up.

No doubt Burt used his insecurities to try to control her. She was younger then he was and enjoyed acting. She loved him but if he was acting out to disrupt her career? That is abuse. She mentioned clearly he never really grew up. All of the attention he was getting was for his looks. You learn not to trust people's intentions which is something I remember him stating before. He became paranoid, probably that someone else would steal her away from him. That certain scenes that she played were not just pretending. Sad and you really cannot have a healthy relationship with someone who has learned to fake illness to control you. He screwed up with her. He said it himself. Sally did what she had to do. Leave. She loved him but after you have been abused by someone close to you? It doesn't really matter. He was emotionally immature. Few people want a grown-up baby to have to take care of all of the time.

It's so odd how I connect to other sexual abuse survivors. It's like an unspoken bond we have to each other through our pain. Love her honesty. Mothers have to face this. Watch Jamie Dlux, to see just how prevelant this is.

The book is a great book to read. In summary, Jocko was a CM... Burt was controlling and jealous of her past relationships and success as a celebrity. Sally didn't get the love, kindness, and respect she deserved throughout her life. Sally would have been a great person to know. I wish I had known her.
