It’s crazy how Sally Field has given all her characters an eternal life. It’s almost as if Gidget, Norma Rae, Mama Gump and Mary Todd Lincoln were playing Sally Field.

+SJ Miller Of all the rationalized explanations I have ever heard to justify an Oscar pick you happen to disagree with, yours has to be the most asinine. Yes, I'm sure academy voters as well as New York and Los Angeles critics, the Cannes Film Festival (that's over in Europe, you know), and every other single body who honored Sally Field's searing performance had Ronald raygun and organized labor on their minds when they filled out their ballots. What indispensable insight you have. Too bad your ability to evaluate the art of screen acting is so lacking. Sally's Norma Rae was a thing of beauty. ps I liked Midler, too. Just not as much.
@TheChannelTV-bt8em8 жыл бұрын
+Mark Whitman Not that far behind. Don't take anything away from Jane Fonda's anchorwoman in The China Syndrome. That was a very smart, complex interpretation, finding chances and hitting points a lot of other actresses would have overlooked. And Jill Clayburgh got a surprising mileage out of her light comedy role in Starting Over. She acted Reynolds right out of the picture, virtually playing out a love story with only one participant.

All of the nominees were outstanding, but Sally Field's performance was a revelation because it was so dissimilar to her previous work with Reynolds, etc. Her work was no aberration as evidenced by her second Oscar win for Places In The Heart and her wonderful work in Spielberg's Lincoln opposite Daniel Day Lewis, a role that she campaigned for. Midler was deserving as well, and she never really got the opportunity to showcase her talents like this on film again, with the possible exception of Beaches. Marsha Mason was superb in Chapter Two opposite James Caan. Clayburgh was exceptional in An Unmarried Woman.

I grew up during The Flying Nun era. She was tired of being typecast as the "girl next door" and went off to study under acting coach legend Lee Strasberg which lead to her serious acting career. Her first movie with her new acting chops was the starring role in a TV movie called "Sybil". She won a well deserved Emmy for her work. I remember the movie well. It was devastating and she was absolutely brilliant! As a fan of hers since I was a little girl, I was so impressed and proud of her! It didn't surprise me at all when she won those two Oscars! 🙂

Last night I had a dream of being with Sally Field as like together ?! I do not know why I had that dream. No sexual stuff just being her boyfriend somehow. Maybe she is what a 21th century man expects of a woman = Beautiful, intelligent and a class act of a person. I know Miss Fields is a good person. Anyway, my dream had a calming and feelgood moment that lasted all day ! I have no clue why I had that dream but hopefully I will get more LOL. I feel great today and I have been thinking about that dream all day.

If Midler was "robbed" then you'd better file your belated complaints not just with the academy but to the New York Film Critics, the Los Angeles Film Critics, the National Society of Film Critics, the National Board of Review, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, the Cannes Film Festival, and every other single body handing out awards that year. Sally took them all--the only time to date that has ever happened--for a performance which was not only career-altering for her, but downright uplifting with its spirit and its flawed but resilient humanity. But they must all be wrong I guess because a few of you say so.

Bette suffered the "anti- superstar syndrome" of the Oscars. She was new in the film genre but hit it big time. She really deserved the best actress statuette that year than Sally did. Anyway, Ms. Field could still walk in the hall with pride and greatness as she also delivered one of the finest performances of the year, slightly eclipsed by Bette's.

Burt helped both Jill & Candice Bergen win Oscar noms that yr for "Starting Over" but was totally robbed of a nom for himself. And he was not w/Sally this eve. She also did not offer any thanks to him for all t/support he had given to her career up to this point. He references this evening in his 1st book. It's so sad, knowing what we know now while watching this. Time goes by so fast...
